## Description

NordLocker: Private Cloud offers encrypted cloud storage for personal and business use. It uses end-to-end encryption and a zero-knowledge architecture to ensure you have complete access control and privacy, whether files live in the cloud or stay on your device.

Secure sharing is simple and private—invite collaborators or generate encrypted links, while you retain ownership and can revoke access at any time. Backed by the NordVPN team and recognized by the Cyber Security Awards as the Cloud-Based Product of the Year, NordLocker delivers cross-device sync and seamless protection across platforms. This version includes improvements for a seamless experience.

## Review summary

NordLocker on iOS offers strong security and cross-device storage but is hampered by stability and iOS-specific usability issues. Frequent crashes, lack of native file provider integration, unreliable uploads, and a clunky retrieval flow frustrate users. Subscriptions add to dissatisfaction. The app shows real potential, but needs major stability, better iOS integration, and clearer error handling to meet user expectations.

### Pros

- Strong security and privacy with encryption and private storage.
- Easy cross-device file transfer and private cloud storage.
- Well-designed interface and solid core functionality when it works.

### Cons

- App crashes/fails to launch on iOS, sometimes rendering the app unusable.
- Poor iOS integration and UX: no native Apple Files provider support, limited in-app capabilities (no thumbnails, cannot save to Photos, portrait-only video, etc.).
- Unreliable uploads: slow transfers, frequent failures, and no support for uploading entire folders.
- Cumbersome retrieval workflow: extra steps to access/download files and lack of previews.
- Pricing and refunds issues: beta status and difficult cancellation/refund for premium.
