Kryptis Private Vault

Scenarios.

Guides that start with something that happened, and what to do on the phone in your hand.

  1. Your partner knows your iPhone passcode. What is still private?If someone you live with knows your iPhone passcode, the Hidden album, locked notes and most vault apps open for them. What actually stays private, and what to do about it.
  2. My kid was on my phone and found my private photosA child on your unlocked phone is the most common way private photos get seen. What to do now, and how to keep the phone usable for them without the risk.
  3. I handed my phone over to show one photo and they swiped into my private onesShowing one photo on an iPhone means trusting the next swipe. How to show a single photo without exposing the rest, and how to make sure it cannot happen again.
  4. Can border agents search your phone? What a vault can and cannot doAt many borders, agents can ask to look through your phone. What they can see in Photos and the Hidden album, what a decoy vault and self-destruct passcode change, and where the limits are.
  5. How to store sensitive documents on iPhone: evidence, records, IDsScreenshots of messages, scans of an ID, court papers, a timeline you may need later. Where each of them leaks on an iPhone by default, and how to keep them encrypted, dated and backed up.
  6. How to keep medical photos and records private on iPhonePhotos of a condition, test results, prescriptions, a discharge summary. They land in Photos and Files by default and sync everywhere. How to keep them encrypted, organised and out of view.
  7. How journalists can protect source photos and recordings on iPhonePhotos of documents, a source's face, a recording from a meeting. Where each one leaks on an iPhone, what a border or a seizure exposes, and how an encrypted vault with a decoy and a self-destruct passcode changes the picture.
  8. Adult creators: keeping working content on iPhone without leaking itWorking files for a subscription platform have no business in the camera roll. How to shoot, store, organise and back up content on an iPhone so it never shows up where it should not.
  9. Before an iPhone repair: what to do with private photos if they ask for your passcodeRepair shops often ask for the device passcode. What that opens, what to do with private photos and files before you hand the phone over, and what to check when it comes back.
