‏ممتاز ممتاز

### 1/5 — Data Lost

*2024-10-31, version 1.1*

One fine day I open the app and find my folders and data is lost.
Not sure if there is a way to recover

### 5/5 — amazing app

*2024-07-21*

totally recommend this app for anyone who likes to store folders, photos privately. It’s great I use so much that I store thousands of pictures in the folders in the app. It’s so much fun I love this app.

### 3/5 — Good no-add vault with some missing features

*2023-10-23, version 1.1*

Pros:
*No ads
*Good import mechanic

Cons:
*Have to export gifs to play them
*Folders don’t have thumbnail/preview of their contents
*Entering the wrong passcode a couple times locks you out for multiple hours. Too long for the first offense - it needs to scale.
*Image viewer doesn’t rotate with the phone - you can only view in portrait mode.

### 4/5 — Missing just a couple of good features

*2023-10-11, version 1.1*

It would be helpful to be able to move multiple pictures after selecting them. I added all my photos, then created folders, but now I have to choose each photo individually to put it into a folder rather than bulk select and hit move all of my selection to a folder. That would be an awesome addition that would make the app perfect I think.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app. Best vault in the AppStore

*2023-09-26, version 1.1*

I love the UI and everything about this app. Top notch. I do have a feature request, unless I just wasn’t able to figure this out, but I’d like to be able to move more than one file at a time and tag more than one file at a time, if that would be possible. No issues anywhere else. Thank you!

### 5/5 — الرياض

*2023-08-31, version 1.1*

جميل جدا ويحفظ الخوصوصيه ولكن يحتاج تعريب اللغه ووضع خيارات اكثر للغات والتنبيه حين تكرار الصور المتشابهه
