BisonCreds keeps your important credentials private, organized, and always accessible — right on your iPhone. Store driver's licenses, passports, insurance cards, employee badges, membership cards, and more. Every credential stays on your device (or in your personal iCloud account). No accounts to create. No external servers. No tracking. Ever. SCAN & STORE IN SECONDS Point your camera at any ID card. BisonCreds uses on-device text recognition to extract the details. You pick which text becomes the name, ID number, or dates — no guesswork. Save a photo of the front and back for quick reference later. ORGANIZED AT A GLANCE Browse credentials by category, search by name or ID number, and see which ones are expiring soon. Color-coded cards make it easy to find what you need fast. FACE ID PROTECTION Lock the entire app with Face ID or Touch ID. Sensitive details like full names, ID numbers, and card images stay blurred until you verify your identity. EXPIRATION REMINDERS Never miss a renewal. Set early reminders (months before) and urgent reminders (days before) so you always have time to act. Available with Premium. PRIVATE ICLOUD SYNC Your credentials sync automatically across your iPhone and iPad through your own personal iCloud account, using Apple's private CloudKit database.
