What the vault is for and who it suits
The listing describes a privacy app for keeping photos, videos and other files out of sight of other people who use the same phone. It is filed under Photography and is aimed at anyone who wants a private place for personal media.
Files are hidden and encrypted inside the app. The developer says the vault itself is not visible to others, though that depends on whether the icon is also hidden.
Hiding and encrypting photos, videos and files
The main job of the app is to move images, videos and other files into an encrypted vault. The listing says the vault covers any file type, not only pictures and video.
Once files are inside, they are kept out of the normal gallery. The listing does not describe how files are returned to the gallery or shared out.
Hiding the app icon from the home screen
The app can remove its own icon from the launcher, so the vault does not show up in the app list. This is the feature the developer points to first when describing privacy.
The listing does not say how the app is reopened once its icon is hidden.
Importing and browsing media inside the vault
Existing photos and videos on the phone can be imported into the vault. The listing presents this as the way to bring private media in from the gallery.
Inside the vault, the developer advertises a media browsing view for going through the hidden photos and videos. The listing gives no detail on layout or sorting.
Photo lock, cloud backup and video downloads
The summary also names a photo lock, cloud backup and the ability to download videos. These sit alongside the hiding tools rather than being described in detail.
The listing does not say which cloud services the backup uses, what the photo lock protects, or which video sources the downloader works with.
