Keep sensitive documents, photos, and notes in a private vault on your iPhone. Start free with up to 10 items. No account needed, and your vault isn't stored on our servers. WHAT YOU CAN KEEP HERE β€’ Passports, IDs, insurance cards, contracts, and tax documents β€’ Photos and videos you'd rather keep out of your main library β€’ Encrypted notes and voice memos β€’ Crypto seed phrases and recovery material HOW IT WORKS β€’ Share files in from any app, or capture photos, video, and audio inside the vault β€’ Unlock with Face ID, Touch ID, or a PIN β€’ Search file and note titles on your device β€’ Pinch to zoom photos and swipe between photos and videos ENCRYPTED BACKUPS Export a passphrase-protected backup, keep it wherever you like, and check that it opens without adding duplicates to your vault. Export and restore never need a subscription. Backups cover selected vault files and notes, not Crypto Secrets or app settings. HOW YOUR FILES ARE PROTECTED Each file gets its own derived key, and files are encrypted with AES-GCM. The device keys behind them are created in the Secure Enclave and can't be exported. You can read the security model and our open-source bundle format at ultralocked.com/security. OPTIONAL CONTROLS β€’ Self-destruct timers for individual files β€’ A duress PIN that shows a decoy vault and requests destruction of the real one β€’ A dead man's switch that requests destruction after a missed check-in β€’ BIP-39 validation, reveal delays, and Shamir sharing for seed phrases GOOD TO KNOW β€’ Adding a file doesn't remove the original from Photos, Files, or other apps. β€’ We can't recover your vault, your keys, or a forgotten backup passphrase. Keep a backup somewhere you can reach without this phone. β€’ Destruction controls can't guarantee physical erasure of flash storage or your personal safety, and iOS doesn't guarantee they run at an exact time while the app isn't running. β€’ Device and tamper checks are best-effort, and can't prove a device is uncompromised. β€’ UltraLocked is not a cryptocurrency wallet. STARTER AND PREMIUM Starter holds up to 10 items. Premium lets you add more, limited by your device's storage. Your files stay readable and exportable if a subscription ends. Premium is available monthly or annually, and Apple shows the price before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled in App Store settings at least 24 hours before the period ends. Terms: https://ultralocked.com/terms Privacy: https://ultralocked.com/privacy

Sometimes β€œsecurity” isn’t a fortress. It’s a choice. A pause. A second door. A decoy key. And now β€” a second door behind the second door. A place your private life can still be yours β€” even when the world insists it shouldn’t be.
