iPhone now · Android coming soon

Your everyday photos. And the ones that stay private.

Veil Photo is a photo gallery for browsing photos and videos, keeping selected media in separate private vaults, converting images, and stripping location and EXIF before you share. Media stays on your phone. The iPhone app is first. Android is coming soon.

A real gallery, not a locker

Browse photos and videos in a date timeline, open albums, search with the metadata Apple already provides, and view media full screen.

Multiple private vaults

Create distinct private spaces, each with its own six-digit PIN. A locked vault shows a generic icon and never reveals names, counts, or thumbnails.

Share without the extras

See removable metadata in plain language, strip EXIF and location from a copy, and keep the original. Check the result before you save or share.

Convert without leaving the app

Turn supported images into HEIC, JPEG, or PNG, pick quality when it applies, and save to Photos, Files, or a vault. Originals stay unless you choose otherwise.

How private vaults work

Vaults are private spaces, not ordinary folders. The PIN only selects and unlocks a vault. It is never a hint that one exists.

  1. Create a vault on purpose

    Open a creation sheet and enter the same six-digit PIN twice. An unknown PIN never creates a vault by accident.

  2. Unlock, then confirm it is you

    The sixth digit prompts Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode. The correct PIN opens only that vault. Any other PIN shakes, clears, and stays silent.

  3. Import, then decide about Photos

    Bring media into the open vault. Deleting the original from Photos is a separate confirmation, never an automatic step.

  4. It locks when you leave

    A vault relocks after five minutes of inactivity, and immediately when the app backgrounds. Switching vaults always asks for owner authentication again.

Fast privacy tools

Everyday image tasks should be obvious: convert a format, remove location, keep the original, and verify the copy before it leaves your phone.

Format conversion

Select one or more supported images, choose HEIC, JPEG, or PNG, preview an estimate when it is practical, and save to Photos, Files, or a vault.

Metadata masking

Review location and other removable EXIF in plain language, export a cleaned copy, and confirm the metadata is gone before you share.

Questions, answered plainly

Is Veil Photo just a hidden folder?

No. It is a full photo gallery for everyday browsing, plus separate private vaults for media you choose to move. Gallery and search never fetch vault items.

Do you upload my photos?

No. Media is processed on your phone. Private vault files and their metadata are not uploaded. There is no cloud sync or backup in the app.

What if I forget a vault PIN?

A vault PIN cannot be recovered. Entering an unknown PIN does not reveal whether that PIN belongs to a vault. Keep a PIN you will remember, or use your master PIN to open the authenticated vault list.

What does the master PIN do?

A distinct master PIN, different from every vault PIN, opens an authenticated list of vaults with each generated icon and vault code. Opening a vault from that list still requires owner authentication.

Is my media encrypted?

Veil Photo stores private media on device, keeps raw PINs only in the device Keychain, and requires owner authentication after a correct PIN. It does not claim encryption properties beyond what is implemented and verified.

Is there an Android app?

Yes. Veil Photo is coming to Android. The iPhone app is available first. The Google Play listing is not public yet.

What happens if I delete a vault?

After an explicit confirmation and a fresh owner authentication, that vault and its media are permanently deleted. This cannot be undone from the app.

What if I go over the free limit later?

You keep view, export, and delete access to private items you already have. Limits are explained before a new action is blocked. Purchases restore through the store where you bought them.
