We catch what Apple misses
Protect Your Photo Privacy
With AI That Stays Private
Vault is your personal AI assistant that scans for sensitive photos entirely on your iPhone. Zero uploads. Zero servers. Zero compromise.
No subscription required
Vault uses tokens to unlock individual photo and video results. Buy once, use anytime -- or subscribe for a rolling monthly supply.
Every library scan is free. You see total counts and risk categories -- no token needed.
1 token = 1 photo unlocked. See the exact image, confidence score, and category.
No recurring charge. Packs never expire while your app is active. Top up when you need.
Vault's Privacy Promise
Vault analyzes your photos using Apple's Neural Engine directly on your device. No images are ever uploaded, transmitted, or stored on any external server. Vault literally cannot share your photos - and that's by design.
Built by someone who has shipped privacy at scale
Vault: Privacy Guardian was built by a software engineer who spent years shipping GDPR compliance and ISO 9001 quality processes at Uber. The privacy architecture here is not a marketing claim -- it is the same engineering discipline applied to a problem that matters personally. On-device means on-device. We test, we verify, and we close holes methodically. That work is documented in the Vault Pledge.
The app stores metadata about your photos (what the AI found) -- not the photos themselves. Your images never leave your device. Ever.
Protection Your iPhone Doesn't Have
iOS doesn't scan your library for sensitive photos. That's where we come in.
Your iPhone Won't Do This For You
Apple doesn't offer a way to find and organize sensitive photos in your library. Vault fills that gap with purpose-built AI that scans, detects, and helps you protect what's private.
Powered by ONNX YOLO models running entirely on-device. Fast, accurate, and completely private. The protection Apple doesn't provide.

Neural Engine Powered
Uses Apple's Neural Engine for hardware-accelerated AI inference. Fast processing without draining your battery.
Works Offline
No internet connection required. Scan your entire photo library even in airplane mode.
Batch Scanning
Scan your entire photo library efficiently. Process thousands of photos in minutes.
Purpose-Built Detection
ONNX-powered YOLO models designed specifically for finding sensitive content. Protection Apple doesn't offer.
Quick Hide Workflow
AI finds your sensitive photos instantly. A few quick taps to move them to iOS Hidden album, protected by Face ID.

A New Name
The app is now Vault: Privacy Guardian. Same on-device AI. Same purple robot. Same privacy promise. A sharper name.
The old name implied the app stores your photos. It does not, and never did. Vault is a metadata vault: it stores what the AI found about your photos (scores, categories, risk levels), not the photos themselves. Your images never leave your iPhone. The new name makes that clearer. A guardian watches over your privacy. That's what Vault does.
Your subscription, tokens, and scan history. App Store URL and Bundle ID. All features and pricing tiers.
App name: Vault: Privacy Guardian. Now live in the App Store.
New in This Release
Video scanning, one-time packs, and a free Demo scan that runs on every library - no subscription required to know what's there.
