Krypt Vault is a local-first encrypted vault for secure storage of passwords, authenticator codes, private notes, photos, videos, documents, and cards. It keeps sensitive data inside an encrypted vault on your device, with keys protected locally so your vault contents, PINs, and encryption keys are not collected by Krypt. Use Krypt Vault to: - Store passwords, usernames, websites, recovery codes, security questions, and TOTP secrets. - Keep authenticator codes beside the logins they protect. - Place private notes, documents, photos, and videos in encrypted vault storage. - Organize secure items with folders, albums, favorites, tags, search, and recent activity. - Use isolated real and decoy vault storage for privacy under pressure. - Generate strong passwords and review password health from the Health Dashboard. - Export encrypted backup bundles and restore with your Recovery Kit. Krypt is designed for people who want a private, offline-capable password and file vault without turning sensitive information into a cloud account. Decryption happens locally. Decrypted data leaves the app only when you choose to export or share it. Version 2.0.1 adds an in-app release history and update highlights after eligible vault unlocks. Free features provide a practical private vault. Optional Pro features include encrypted cloud sync, Priority Support, and advanced security workflows through a one-time in-app purchase.
