Photo Enclave

About

【Key Features】 ■ Encrypted Local Storage All content is stored internally within the app using a private, encrypted format, completely separated from the native system Photos app and inaccessible to other external applications. This app requests no network permissions and is incapable of transmitting data. From a technical perspective, no party—including the developer—can access your original photos and videos without your explicit authorization. ■ Album Management Organize your content into dedicated albums by category for streamlined browsing and an additional layer of independent protection. ■ Import & Export Seamlessly import media from your system library or capture content directly using the built-in camera. Flexible export options are fully supported: · Recommended: Package files into our proprietary encrypted format with a custom password to prevent data leaks during network transfers (recipient must install the same app to decrypt). · Optional: Export directly into standard media formats based on your actual needs. ■ Granular Device Lock In addition to securing the app entry via native device authentication (Face ID / Touch ID / Passcode), you can precisely enforce secondary verification for sensitive actions—such as sharing, exporting, or taking screenshots—to prevent accidental exposure or unauthorized peeking from those around you. ■ Disguised Interface Camouflage the app icon and entry point as a fully functional everyday tool, such as a calculator, notepad, screensaver, or drawing board. To an outsider, it functions as an ordinary utility. Accessing the real privacy interface requires a specific, hidden gesture and can be paired with device lock for secondary verification. ■ Isolated Hidden Spaces For sensitive media requiring the highest level of security, establish completely isolated "Hidden Spaces" protected by dedicated passcodes. Albums bound to these spaces remain entirely invisible under normal usage and only reveal themselves when the correct passcode is entered. The moment the app recedes to the background, the passcode is immediately cleared from memory, minimizing any risk of exposure. 【Important Disclosures】 Regarding Passcodes & Encryption: This application operates entirely offline, relies on no servers, requires no account registration, and collects zero personal data. Your passcodes and encryption keys are stored exclusively on your device or within your exported files as salted cryptographic hashes. If forgotten, they cannot be recovered by anyone—including us. Please ensure you keep them secure. Regarding Network Activity: The source code of this application contains absolutely no network requests and integrates no third-party SDKs. However, due to the underlying iOS architecture, native Apple frameworks may generate minimal, system-level data telemetry directed to official Apple servers (*.apple.com), which might reflect as trace network traffic. You can completely deny network permissions for this app in your system settings without affecting any local functionality. 【Support & Commitment】 ■ Built-in Guide A comprehensive user manual is embedded within the app, accompanied by intuitive tooltips across key interfaces to ensure a seamless and effortless onboarding experience. ■ Pay Once, Lifetime Updates We firmly stand by a clean, independent indie model: One-time purchase, lifetime access. No matter how many features are added in the future, we will never introduce any In-App Purchases (IAP) or subscription models. Existing users will always receive all subsequent version upgrades entirely free of charge. If you have any suggestions or encounter any issues, please contact us via in-app feedback or email. Valid community input will be prioritized in our future development roadmap.
