Protect your private files

Features & Capabilities

FileGuard securely stores private content in a digital vault. Passcode-protect personal photos, videos, notes, and files, and unlock them only on your device. It includes a private browser to surf without leaving history, plus album locks, secure password storage, and private bookmarks to keep everything organized.

Security features include Face ID/Touch ID and Two-Factor Authentication (2FA). The basic app is free, while unlimited access to advanced features requires a subscription. Subscriptions start at $2.99 per month or $19.99 per year and renew automatically unless you cancel. See the links for Subscriptions, Terms, and Privacy. Some features (like Cloud Storage) may be turned off when the subscription ends.

User Reviews

Overall, users praise the app for its ease of use and features, and some long-time users remain fond of it when it works. However, there is a strong, recurring pattern of reliability problems after updates: data loss or inability to access photos and files, and ongoing issues with iOS compatibility. Login and app launch failures are common, and support is frequently described as unresponsive. Billing problems add to frustration, with ongoing charges despite failures. The net sentiment is largely negative due to data loss and poor update support.

Pros

User-friendly interface with features
Some users report the app saved or recovered old photos and videos after fixes
Positive sentiment from long-time users when the app works and is functioning as expected

Cons

Data loss or inability to access files after updates or iOS changes
Update compatibility issues with newer iOS versions or failed updates
Poor or non-responsive customer support
Subscription billing problems, including ongoing charges despite issues
Login/access problems and inability to open the app after updates

When I find this app, I actually immediately downloaded and thinking that this is gonna help my storage but no turns out I have multiple storages and my iPad was complaining for weeks weeks on end for storage like this. Also there’s no ads for this. This is really quite sketchy and weird. It’s but I actually do like this app. I just wish that this wouldn’t lag again if I added more photos or bring back my old photos, please fix your app file guard.

I paid for file storage. Had to delete the app and went to log back in and it wouldn’t let me access everything that was stored

App does not work properly. Paid for a year subscription. Kept getting I had reached a limit on files message when the subscription is supposed to have unlimited storage. Customer service never responds so you get absolutely no help with a problem you might have. Had to cancel and get a refund from Apple.
