CodeVault is your personal archive for code snippets and technical notes, built for developers who want to find what they already wrote in seconds. ORGANIZE YOUR CODE Save snippets in 20 languages (Swift, SwiftUI, Python, JavaScript, TypeScript, Kotlin, Java, C, C++, C#, PHP, SQL, Bash, HTML, CSS, JSON, YAML and more), with syntax highlighting and line numbers. Add plain-text or Markdown notes for documentation, checklists and technical write-ups. FIND EVERYTHING INSTANTLY Custom categories, color-coded tags, pinned items, and full-text search across titles, content and categories. The Home screen surfaces your recent items and most-used categories at a glance. SYNCED AND SAFE Your data stays yours: automatic sync across iPhone, iPad and Mac via iCloud, with a local-only fallback if iCloud isn't available. Optional Face ID or Touch ID lock to protect access to the app. A trash with 30-day restore means one accidental swipe is never permanent. EXPORT AND SHARE Backup and export to JSON, share as Markdown, export notes to PDF: your content stays portable and safe from loss. BUILT FOR MAC AND IPAD A native SwiftUI interface that adapts to the platform: sidebar and multi-column layout on Mac and iPad, compact navigation on iPhone, keyboard shortcuts on Mac. Whether you're collecting handy one-liners, saving configs, tracking terminal commands, or writing technical notes for a project, CodeVault is where you keep them organized and within reach.
