Keepfold
Read full descriptionHide full description
Keepfold holds the small details you keep looking up: the registration number, the Wi-Fi password at the cabin, the hotel room, the booking reference. One card each, kept exactly as you typed it β leading zeros, spaces and capitals untouched β and one tap to copy. Give a card a last day and it tidies itself away when that day has passed. It moves to the archive, not the bin, and one tap brings it back. SEVEN DAYS WITH EVERYTHING Your first card starts a week of the whole app. After that, Keepfold Plus keeps it all β a yearly plan, or a single purchase. Prices are listed under In-App Purchases above. Exporting every card as a plain text file is free, always: before, during and after. WIDGETS Choose which cards may appear on your Home Screen or Lock Screen. Nothing is shown there unless you say so. LOCKED CARDS Lock a card and it shows dots until you confirm with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode. A shield against a glance β not a safe. Keepfold is not a password manager and does not pretend to be. ICLOUD, IF YOU WANT IT Off by default. Turn it on and your cards are kept in your own iCloud as an encrypted field, so your iPad shows the same list. We have neither an account nor a server. HONEST BY DESIGN No data collection, no tracking, no ads. Your cards stay on your device unless you choose otherwise. Deleted cards are kept for 30 days, then gone for good. Made in Sweden.
