Obscura Photo Vault

Obscura Photo Vault hides your photos and videos behind real encryption, entirely on your iPhone, iPad or Android phone. No accounts, no ads, no cloud, no analytics, no internet connection required, and the Android app does not have the internet permission. If you forget your password there is no reset and no recovery, by design. All encryption and decryption runs through ObscuraCrypto, an open source library (GPL-3.0), so anyone can read and verify the code that protects their photos: https://github.com/orlio-inc/ObscuraCrypto. The app itself is closed source.

FEATURES

• AES-256-GCM encryption on all photos, videos and databases • 600,000 rounds of PBKDF2 key derivation • Separate vaults, each opening only with its own password, with no vault list or count (multiple vaults need Pro) • Face ID and Touch ID on iPhone and iPad, fingerprint or face unlock on Android • Auto-lock • Folder passwords for a second encryption layer • Videos decrypted in memory while they play • Built-in camera that saves photos and videos into the vault, and sharing into the vault from other apps • Photo editing: crop, rotate, flip, adjustments, filters, redaction • Metadata removal • Collages of up to 10 photos • Duplicate photo detection • Frames from Live Photos • Slideshows with shuffle and resume • Favorites, tags, drag to reorder, date sorting • Recently Deleted • Encrypted .obscura export and import for backup and for moving between phones, including between iPhone and Android • Automatic on-device snapshots of your albums, tags and organization • No analytics, no telemetry, no tracking SDKs
