About
**Protect your passwords. Protect your identity.**
CLAUS is a private vault designed for people who want complete control over their most sensitive information.
Store passwords, passports, identity cards, driving licences and other important documents entirely on your own device.
Nothing is synchronized automatically.
Nothing is uploaded to external servers.
Nothing leaves your iPhone unless you decide it should.
**Why CLAUS when there’s already Passwords?**
CLAUS was created to cover a different use case: the person who prefers a manager completely independent of their Apple ID, without automatic synchronization, without data ever leaving the device, and with the ability to give the app a completely hidden appearance that is different from its functionality.
If someone picks up your phone and sees the app, they might think it's your calculator, calendar, or notes. Only you know what's inside. Plus, the app automatically closes after a period of inactivity, the length of which you can define in the app's settings.

**Total discretion**
Change the title and home screen image to make the app look like anything else. A note, a clock, a folder. Choose from eight predefined appearances or upload your own family photo. No one who looks at your phone without permission will be able to guess that it is an app where you store your valuable passwords.

**Security without compromise**
CLAUS protects your passwords using iOS hardware encryption. All data is stored with Apple's Data Protection framework, which encrypts the database with AES-256 backed by the device's Secure Enclave. Your passwords are inaccessible when the device is locked.
Access to the app requires Face ID or Touch ID. If the phone is inactive, the app closes itself and returns to the home screen.

**Encrypted backups under your control**
Make encrypted (AES-256) backups of your entire database and save them wherever you want: iCloud Drive, a local disk, a USB, wherever you decide. Restore them with a password. No external service ever touches your data.

**Everything you need, nothing you don't**
- Save username, password and notes for each entry
- Automatically detect if you use the same password in more than one place
- Change history for each password
- Individually configurable password review reminders for every account
- Quick editing with sequential field-by-field keyboard
- Copy to clipboard with a single tap and paste the username and password automatically on your Mac if both devices are on the same Wifi.

**Protect your identity, not just your passwords**
Store passports, identity cards, residence permits, driving licences and other personal documents securely inside Claus.
Whenever somebody requests a copy of one of your documents, Claus creates a dedicated protected version instead of sending the original.
Each protected copy can include:
• Visible watermark showing who requested it
• Purpose of the disclosure
• Date of creation
• Custom reference number
• Full disclosure history
Your original document always remains untouched.
**Free. No ads. No traces.**
CLAUS is completely free. There are no integrated purchases, no ads, no analytics, no server that receives anything you type.

What's New in CLAUS
2.0.2
August 18, 2026
A minor fix regarding password renewal alerts has been corrected: Passwords for successive backups are fixed, so the notification option for these backups (passwords whose title begins with "Backup") has been removed. Naturally, you should avoid assigning a name to a password with this prefix if it is used for other logins.
