## What is GateKey?

Carrying groceries. Holding a kid. Sitting in the rain at a darkened gate.

GateKey puts the 6-digit code you need on the Lock Screen the moment you need it. One glance, punch in, move on.

- Store as many codes as you need. Pick an icon and color for each.
- Auto-expire each code: 1 hour, 6 hours, 1 day, 7 days, 30 days, or a custom date. Codes you don't need anymore clean themselves up.
- Tap "Show on Lock Screen" to start a Live Activity. The code rides on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, no app open required.
- Pin a specific code to the Home Screen widget, or let GateKey surface the most recently added non-expired one.
- Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode guards the app and any editing. The Lock Screen surface is glanceable by design — that is the entire point.

One-time purchase. No subscription. No in-app purchases.

How GateKey treats your data:

- Codes live in the iOS Keychain on this device. They are encrypted at rest by the operating system.
- No iCloud sync. No backup to your other devices. No account.
- No analytics SDK. No crash reporter. No remote configuration.
- The app makes no network requests at all.

The privacy nutrition label is "Data Not Collected." It will stay that way.
