Common Space
Read full descriptionHide full description
Common Space is a privacy-first vault for your most personal photos and videos. Everything you add is encrypted on your device with a key only you know — nothing else, nowhere else. YOUR PHOTOS, SEALED WITH YOUR PIN Common Space encrypts every image and video with AES-256-GCM, the same standard used to protect classified data. The encryption key is derived from your PIN and stored in Apple's Keychain — never on our servers, because we don't operate any. PRIVACY IS THE PRODUCT, NOT THE PITCH • No analytics, no telemetry, no third-party SDKs • No sign-up, no email required • We cannot see your content — not a single byte • Nothing syncs unless you turn iCloud on yourself WORKS OFFLINE Import photos from Photos or Files, capture directly into the vault with the built-in camera, and browse exactly like Apple's Photos app. Optional iCloud sync lets you unlock the same vault on your iPhone and iPad — using your Apple ID and your PIN, never a password we could reset. DISGUISE IT IN PLAIN SIGHT Choose from 12 alternate app icons — a shopping bag, a game die, a mushroom, a rainbow — so a glance at your home screen reveals nothing about what's inside. FREE FOREVER, UPGRADE IF YOU WANT Common Space holds up to 10 items for free, permanently. If you want more, a one-time $9.99 purchase (Common Space Unlimited) removes the cap — no subscription, ever. Supports Apple Family Sharing. TRUST BY DESIGN • AES-256-GCM encryption via Apple's CryptoKit • PIN-derived key wrapped in the iOS Keychain • Face ID / Touch ID as an optional shortcut — PIN still required as backup • Automatic lock when the app goes to the background • Encrypted iCloud sync to your own private CloudKit database • Zero-knowledge: forget your PIN and even we cannot recover your vault Built by DejaWorks LTD, an independent studio focused on tools that respect their users. Get back a corner of the internet that only you can enter.

Verdict
The clearest difference is iOS requirement: Stash Anything at 17.0 against Common Space's 26.5. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
