Hideout: Secret Photo Vault

Hide your private photos and videos behind a passcode and your fingerprint — and do not lose them. Every file is encrypted on this phone before it is stored, with a key that is made here and never leaves the device. There are no servers to send anything to, and no account to create. On the home screen you can swap its icon for one of four plain icons. None of them says what is inside. WHAT THE OTHER VAULTS GET WRONG • They hold your photos hostage behind a subscription. Here, export is free forever — anything you have hidden you can take back out, paid or not. • They show ads, sometimes even after you pay. This app has no ads at all. • They lock you out when you forget the passcode. Here the passcode is a gate, not the key: your fingerprint resets it and nothing is lost. • They lose everything when you change phones. This one writes a single encrypted backup file that carries the whole vault, key included, to the new device. • Their videos play without sound. Video plays full-screen, with audio. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick photos, videos or screenshots through the Android photo picker. The app never asks for access to the rest of your gallery, and never gets it. 2. What lands in the vault is encrypted at once with AES-256. 3. Android does not let any app delete a photo it was handed, so the originals stay in your gallery until you clear them there. The app says so plainly and takes you to the gallery to do it. BUILT FOR THE OVER-THE-SHOULDER LOOK • Screenshots and screen recording are blocked outright, and the vault never appears in Recents. • Decoy passcode — a second code opens a harmless album, with nothing to suggest a first one exists. • Albums with their own codes — handing someone one album never opens the rest. • Break-in log — wrong codes are written down. Turn the camera on and the front camera takes a picture too, encrypted next to your files. It never reaches us. • Shake to close — a flick of the wrist locks the vault. • The grid prints in black and white, so a glance from across the room gives away less. CHANGING PHONES Save a backup file and keep it wherever you like. It carries the whole vault and its key, and only its own password opens it — not even we can. Restore it on the new phone and everything is back. Without a backup, a lost phone is a lost vault: the key lives in this phone's hardware keystore and cannot be copied out of it. PRIVACY, PLAINLY No account. No email. No analytics. No advertising SDKs. We cannot read your files because we never receive them — they never leave your phone. FREE AND PREMIUM Free covers 100 files with every feature, no ads and free export. Premium lifts the cap on files and on albums with their own codes: $2.99/month, $9.99/year with a 7-day free trial, or $24.99 once for lifetime. Restoring a purchase always works. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in Google Play. A free trial converts to a paid period unless cancelled at least 24 hours before it ends. The lifetime plan is a single payment.
