SecurePix: Private Photo Vault helps you hide private photos, videos and personal files inside a discreet clock-style vault. Keep sensitive media away from your regular gallery, organize private folders and unlock your private space with a time-based clock password. SecurePix is built for everyday privacy on iPhone and iPad. The app looks like a simple clock screen, while your private photo vault stays protected behind your saved clock time. KEY FEATURES Private Photo Vault Import personal photos into a locked vault and keep them separate from your visible gallery. Create private albums for memories, screenshots, documents, IDs and other personal images. Video Vault Hide private videos inside SecurePix and view them with the built-in private video player. Keep recordings, family clips, work media and other videos away from casual browsing. Clock Vault Access Set your vault password by moving the hour and minute hands to a chosen time. To unlock the vault, enter the same time again on the clock screen. Private Files & Folders Organize photos, videos, documents and personal files into private folders. Keep important media easy to find while keeping it away from the Photos app. Decoy Vault Use a separate decoy vault when you want another privacy layer.
