Your private photos, encrypted on your phone.
Privora keeps photos, videos, documents and notes in an encrypted vault that only your password opens. No account. No ads. No analytics.
- AES-256-GCM encryption
- Argon2id password protection
- Works offline
A gallery’s “hidden” album isn’t private. A vault is.
Hidden albums and locked folders keep photos out of sight, but they rely on your phone’s lock and your Google account. Privora encrypts each file with a key only your password can unlock – on your phone, without an account.
Real encryption, not a hiding trick
Files, thumbnails and file names are encrypted with AES-256-GCM. Your password is stretched with Argon2id, which makes guessing slow.
Your vault stays on your phone
No account, no ads, no analytics. Your files are never uploaded; the internet is used only to verify Pro purchases with Google Play.
A personal vault you can hide
A second vault with its own password, which you can hide completely.
A harmless vault for emergencies
Extra vaults (Pro) open with their own password on the normal lock screen – nothing shows how many exist.
Know who tried
Wrong passwords are logged, encrypted. Lock instantly by turning the phone face down.
Backups you can trust
Encrypted backups to an SD card, USB stick or your own cloud folder – each one read back and checked.
Move to a new phone
One encrypted file via Quick Share, Bluetooth or a cable. Restore with your password or recovery key.
Share and export safely
Export removes location and hidden data. Send encrypted packages that open with a phrase (Pro).

Frequently asked questions
Can Privora see my photos?
No. The vault is encrypted on your phone with a key protected by your password. Nothing in the vault is uploaded, and there is no account.
What happens if I forget my password?
Use your recovery key. Without the password or the recovery key, nobody – including us – can open the vault. That is the point of real encryption.
Is Privora free?
Yes, the vault is free. Privora Pro adds extra vaults, a photo of the person trying to get in, encrypted sharing and a neutral app icon.
Is the encryption audited?
Not yet. Privora uses standard, well-studied building blocks (AES-256-GCM, Argon2id), but its design has not been independently audited. We describe exactly how it works on our security page.
