About

ManyKeep

Features
Read full description

ManyKeep is a private photo and video vault that lives only on your device. No cloud, no account, no tracking — your memories stay yours. KEEP IT TRULY PRIVATE Photos and videos are stored in the app's protected sandbox, locked behind your access codes. iOS marks every file with the strongest data-protection class so they're unreadable while your device is locked. There's no account to create, no server to trust, and nothing leaves your phone unless you choose to export it. MULTIPLE VIRTUAL SPACES Set a master access code that unlocks every album. Add separate codes for individual albums when you want to share access without revealing the rest. Three roles per code — Manage, Contribute, View — let you decide who can add, edit, or just look. QUICK ACCESS WITHOUT GETTING IN YOUR WAY Sign in with Face ID, Touch ID, or fingerprint with one explicit tap. Or type any access code without the biometric prompt hijacking the screen — useful when a non-master code unlocks just one album. CAMERA + GALLERY IMPORT Snap a photo straight from the bottom bar and pick which album to save it to. Record videos. Import existing photos and videos from your device's gallery. Save anything back to your Camera Roll later if you change your mind. VIDEOS PLAY BACK INLINE — ON YOUR TERMS Stored videos play in the app and never auto-play. The first frame shows with a play button so you stay in control of when audio starts — useful when you don't want a clip to suddenly speak up in public. RECYCLE BIN Deleted items move to a 30-day recycle bin so a wrong tap isn't the end of the road. Restore or permanently delete on your terms. The app auto-purges anything past the retention window so storage stays clean. QUICK SIGN OUT + AUTO LOCK A dedicated sign-out button on the bottom bar locks the vault the moment you're done. The app also auto-locks when you switch to another app, so the next person who picks up the phone hits the access-code screen. FIVE THEME STYLES Pick a look that fits your mood: Default sea-blue, Luxury (ivory and antique gold), Brutalist (stark black and white), Playful (coral and mint), or Retro CRT (phosphor green monospace). Light and dark modes ship for every style. LANGUAGES English and Thai today, with more languages on the roadmap. PREMIUM The free tier covers up to 2 albums and 30 photos per album, photos only. Premium unlocks unlimited albums, unlimited photos and videos per album, video imports, multiple access codes per album, and the four premium theme styles. Available as a monthly or yearly subscription with a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan. Subscription auto-renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage in your account settings.
