Keep important cards and document copies close at hand in a private wallet on your iPhone. Scan the front and back of a card, search your saved cards offline, and choose which details to show for each situation. PRIVACY BY DESIGN • Your wallet is encrypted on your iPhone and protected by device authentication. • Hide selected details while keeping your original images unchanged. • Create reusable Ways to Present and preview them before sharing. • Core wallet use does not require a digiID account. MORE THAN ID CARDS Organize membership cards, business cards, passport copies, certificates and other personal documents. Use favorites, categories and expiry reminders to find what you need. PRESENT WITH CONTROL Open a focused full-screen view, switch between front and back, and zoom to inspect details. Rotate your iPhone for landscape presentation. Review both sides before showing or exporting a copy. START WITH ONE FREE CARD Your first saved card is free. Basic privacy editing, barcode and QR-code checks, access to saved cards, recovery and plain privacy-masked PDF export remain available without a subscription. Detection can miss details or codes, so always review the result. OPTIONAL DIGIID PLUS Add more cards and save up to 50 Ways to Present per card. Choose Prism, Aurora, Gold or Graphite privacy finishes. Add purpose, recipient and date labels to PDF copies. Use Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets and create a portrait image for an Apple Shortcuts Home Screen launcher. The U.S. offer is three months free for eligible subscribers, then $0.99 per month. Prices vary by storefront; the App Store displays your local price and eligibility. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. The subscription automatically renews unless canceled. Manage or cancel through your Apple Account subscription settings. ALREADY PURCHASED THE ORIGINAL UNLOCK? Your original Limited purchase remains separate and retains its purchased card and saved-version capacity. Restore it with the Apple Account that made the original purchase. Ending Plus does not delete your cards, remove saved privacy masks or disable existing saved presentation versions. Compatible cards from earlier digiID Limited versions can be recovered on the same device while their original files remain available. Do not delete the app before updating. digiID stores personal copies for convenience. It does not issue, verify, replace or authenticate official identification. Acceptance is up to the recipient. Holograms are decorative privacy covers, not issuer security marks. Purpose labels do not prevent copying. Portrait shortcuts do not replace the installed app icon.

About

Otter 2FA Authenticator

Features
Read full description

Otter generates your two-factor authentication codes on your phone, from keys that stay on your phone. No account. No cloud. No server. Nothing to create, no extra password, nothing to confirm by email. Otter makes no network requests at all, and it cannot replace its own code after you install it. What you install is what runs. MOVING IN, AND MOVING ON - Reads the standard otpauth setup codes any other authenticator can export - Exports one encrypted backup file, sealed with a passphrase you choose - Import adds to what you have, or replaces it, and tells you which before it acts - The backup holds standard URIs, so it stays readable elsewhere if you ever leave WHAT IT DOES - Adds accounts by scanning a QR code, or by typing the key by hand - Generates standard TOTP and HOTP codes, as used by every major service - Groups the digits 3+3 and shows the seconds left, so nothing jumps as it changes - Copies a code with one tap, and clears the clipboard afterwards - Hides codes until you tap them, and can block screenshots HOW YOUR KEYS ARE KEPT - Every key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before it touches the disk - The key that opens them is held by your phone's own secure hardware, behind Face ID, Touch ID or a PIN - A wrong PIN slows down the next attempt, and the delay survives a restart - Otter shows codes, never the keys behind them THE REST - Free. No adverts, no subscription, no in-app purchase, no paid tier - English and French, following whichever your phone is set to - Ten app icons, and a true black dark mode for OLED screens - No analytics, no crash reporting, no telemetry of any kind WHAT IT PROTECTS YOU AGAINST - A lost or stolen phone, locked - Someone picking up your phone while it is unlocked - Someone reading the app's data directory, or an unencrypted device backup - Screenshots and shoulder-surfing - A leaked backup file, without its passphrase - Silent tampering with the stored data WHAT IT CANNOT PROTECT YOU AGAINST - A rooted or jailbroken phone, or its memory read while the vault is open - A compromised operating system, or a compromised keyboard - Someone coercing you into unlocking it - A PIN or a backup passphrase that is easy to guess And the backup is the only way back. If you lose your phone without one, the keys are gone: Otter holds no copy, so there is nothing on our side to restore from. Export one on the day you install.
