Cryptaire
Features
Everything marked "At launch" is built and working in the app today. Everything marked "In development" is on the way. We would rather tell you straight than oversell.
5 by 5 pattern lock
Connect at least 4 of 25 dots. Your pattern is separate from your phone passcode, so knowing one does not open the other.
Unlimited hidden vaults
Every pattern opens its own vault. The app never shows a list, so nobody can tell how many vaults exist or what is in them.
AES-256-GCM encryption
Each vault gets its own random 256-bit key, wrapped by a key derived from your pattern with PBKDF2. Wrong pattern, no key, no photos.
No account, no cloud
No sign-up and no servers. Your photos stay on your phone and nowhere else.
Auto-lock
Switch apps or lock your screen and the vault locks instantly. Decrypted photos only exist in memory while you look at them.
Bulk import
Pick many photos at once from your gallery and lock them away in one go.
Videos
Encrypt videos the same way as photos.
Recovery phrase
A set of words only you hold, so a forgotten pattern does not cost you your photos.
Decoy pattern
A pattern that opens a harmless vault when someone forces you to unlock.
Disguised app icon
Make Cryptaire look like an ordinary utility on your home screen.
Private camera
Take photos straight into a vault so they never touch your camera roll.
Encrypted backup
Back up a vault that stays encrypted, so the backup is as private as the phone.
Hidden is not the same as encrypted.
Cryptaire locks your photos behind a pattern only you know, encrypted on your phone. Coming soon to iPhone and Android.
