## What is The Vault?

Your private files, locked on your iPhone and nowhere else.

The Vault keeps photos, videos, documents and notes inside an encrypted
container on your device. No account. No cloud. No copy of your files on
anyone's server, including ours.

TWO VAULTS, ONE APP
You create two passphrases, and each one opens its own separate vault. One
holds what matters to you. The other is one you can open in front of someone
who insists on seeing what is on your phone. Neither vault reveals that the
other exists, and both look and behave exactly the same.

REAL ENCRYPTION
Everything is sealed with AES-256-GCM. Your passphrase becomes a key through
Argon2id, the algorithm built to make guessing expensive even with specialised
hardware. The vault is a single fixed-size file whose size never changes, so
nothing about it shows how much you keep or whether you added anything today.

NOTHING LEAVES YOUR DEVICE
There are no servers, no analytics, no tracking and no advertising. The app
never asks who you are. Its only connection is to the App Store, for your
subscription.

WHAT YOU CAN STORE
- Photos and videos, imported straight from your library
- PDFs and documents from Files or any other app
- Text notes written inside the app

Location data and other hidden metadata are stripped from files as they come
in. Videos play from inside the vault without ever being written back out.

EXTRA PROTECTION
- Content is hidden while your screen is recorded or mirrored, and you are told
  when a screenshot has been taken
- The vault locks the moment the app leaves the screen, and hides itself in the
  app switcher
- Optionally erase everything after a chosen number of failed attempts
- Optionally photograph whoever enters a wrong passphrase
