## What is My Media Vault?

My Media Vault is a private photo and video vault for iPhone. Your media stays on your device — encrypted before it is saved, locked behind your credentials, and never synced to a developer-operated cloud.

PRIVATE. ENCRYPTED. LOCAL.

• AES-256-GCM encryption for photos, videos, and thumbnails
• Vault key stored in the iOS Keychain — your lock credentials never leave your device
• Complete File Protection keeps encrypted files inaccessible when your iPhone is locked

LOCK YOUR VAULT YOUR WAY

• Secure the app with a PIN, pattern, or password
• Optional Face ID or Touch ID
• Auto-lock after inactivity
• Optional per-album passwords for extra-sensitive collections

ORGANIZE & PROTECT YOUR MEDIA

• Create albums and keep favorites
• Import from your photo library, camera, clipboard, or encrypted album ZIPs
• Export when you choose — you stay in control
• Hide albums from the main list and local transfer when needed
• Photo and video editing tools built in

STAY DISCREET

• Optional screenshot protection helps hide vault content from screenshots, screen recording, and the app switcher when possible

MOVE MEDIA WITHOUT THE CLOUD

• Local Transfer over Wi‑Fi on your home network
• USB / Finder import and export of encrypted album ZIPs
• Content remains encrypted at rest — no developer-operated servers

BUILT FOR PRIVACY

• No cloud storage or remote backup of vault contents
• No analytics or tracking SDKs
• No accounts required
• Standard Apple security frameworks (CryptoKit, Keychain, LocalAuthentication)

My Media Vault is for anyone who wants sensitive photos and videos kept off the cloud and locked on their own device — private memories, personal documents, or anything you do not want sitting in a shared photo library.
