## Description

Secure Folder: Photo Vault is a personal vault that locks and hides photos, videos, notes, passwords, and more behind Face ID, Touch ID, or a secure PIN. It keeps your content private on-device or in your private iCloud, never on our servers.

Organize with unlimited folders and albums, per-album or per-folder locks, fake passcode, and calculator mode for discreet access. Optional iCloud sync, trash recovery, and file attachments add convenience and security for a seamless private vault experience.

## Review summary

The app is praised for ease of use and secure organization of photos and documents, plus responsive support and a visually pleasing design. However, users repeatedly report data loss and stability issues (crashes, freezes, startup problems), inconsistent iCloud sync/backups, and occasional organize/move glitches. Some features are requested (decoy password and improved trash handling). Overall, strong usability but significant reliability and data-security concerns.

### Cons
