ENCRYPTED VAULT Store sensitive files inside an AES-256 encrypted vault. Protected by Face ID / Touch ID. FREE SPACE WIPE Overwrite all unused space on your device to eliminate traces of previously deleted files. SHRED CERTIFICATES Generate a PDF certificate for every shred operation. DUPLICATE CLEANER Scan your files and photos for duplicates, then securely wipe the ones you don't need. PRIVACY FIRST SecureShred works entirely on-device. No data is uploaded, tracked, or shared.
