Privately - Hide & Lock Photos

Privately keeps your photos truly private — hidden, locked, and encrypted on your iPhone. No cloud, no servers, no ads, no tracking.

YOUR LIBRARY, YOUR RULES

Hide photos from your default library with a tap. Lock specific albums behind Face ID, Touch ID, or a PIN — perfect for personal moments, IDs, receipts, and screenshots you'd rather keep out of sight.

ENCRYPTED ON YOUR DEVICE

Every photo you import is encrypted on your iPhone using AES-256-GCM, with keys protected by Face ID/Touch ID. Nothing leaves your device. Privately is built without servers, so even we cannot see your photos.

UNLOCK INSTANTLY WITH FACE ID

Open hidden albums with biometrics in a glance. Set a PIN as a fallback. Albums re-lock automatically when you switch apps or close Privately, even if your phone is still unlocked.

SEARCH TEXT INSIDE ANY PHOTO

On-device OCR runs across your entire encrypted vault. Find receipts, documents, screenshots, and notes by their contents — without sending anything to the cloud.

ENCRYPTED BACKUPS YOU CONTROL

Export a password-protected archive (Argon2id + AES-256-GCM). Store it in iCloud Drive, Files, or another cloud — even if the file leaks, your photos stay encrypted.

WHY PRIVATELY

• On-device encryption (AES-256-GCM)

• Face ID / Touch ID / PIN protection

• True hidden albums — invisible from the iOS Photos app

• Text search inside photos (OCR)

• Encrypted, password-protected backups

• No accounts, no servers, no analytics

• Designed for iOS — fast, private, beautiful

PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY

We don't track you. We don't ask for an account. We don't connect to a server. Your photos and metadata never leave your iPhone unless you choose to export them.

For everyone who wants their personal photos to stay personal — family, friends, work, finance, health — all under your control, all on your phone.
