### 5/5 — Very easy to use!

*2022-07-29*

I was looking for an App to save / hide my PDF documents on my iPhone and a friend recommend this App, because sometimes her kids borrowed her iPhone to play games and she used it to hide some personal photo.

It is quite easy to use and free version can accept 10 items.

Later on when I have more things to hide, I will buy the service, it is only a one-time charge instead of monthly subscription, which is great.
