PRIVATE iCLOUD SYNC AND BACKUPS Keep your vault in SwiftLocker's own space in your iCloud and bring it back on a new iPhone. Export password-protected backups whenever you like. EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE Folders for photos, videos, documents and PDFs. Import from Photos or Files, or scan documents and IDs straight into the vault.

BUILT FOR PRIVACY Every file is encrypted on your device, and iCloud sync is end-to-end encrypted. Break-in Alerts photograph whoever enters wrong PINs. The app hides its content in the app switcher. Your photos and files never leave your device except to your own iCloud.
