--- KEY FEATURES ---

🔒 Smart App Lock
Lock social media apps, messaging apps, Gallery, Settings, or any other application you choose. Prevent unauthorized access and guard your privacy.
- Supports PIN code and Fingerprint unlock (on supported devices).
- Relock settings: Choose to relock immediately or after a specific time.

🖼️ Photo & Video Vault
Keep your personal media safe. Move sensitive photos and videos from your public gallery to a secure, encrypted vault within the app. Only you can access them with your PIN or fingerprint.

📸 Intruder Detection
Find out who tried to unlock your apps. The app automatically captures a photo of anyone who enters the wrong PIN code, saving the image with a timestamp for your review.

🎭 Disguise Mode (Calculator Icon)
Protect the app itself by changing its icon. Transform Privacy Vault into a functional Calculator. The vault can only be accessed by entering your PIN into the calculator interface.

Confuse snoopers by showing a fake "App Stopped" crash screen when they try to open a locked app. Only you know the trick to bypass this cover and access the actual lock screen.

- File Vault for securing documents.
