One vault

Everything private, finally in one place

Seven purpose-built categories with the right fields for each — not just a list of logins.

Passwords

Website & app logins, Wi-Fi and secure credentials — with password history.

Cards

Credit, debit, membership, loyalty and gift cards.

Secure notes

Private notes, journals, checklists and code snippets.

Contacts

Emergency, personal, business and bank contacts.

Documents

IDs, certificates, records and scanned papers, with attachments.

Reminders

Renewals, expiries, bills and custom reminders.

Digital assets

Crypto wallets, API keys, SSH keys and server credentials.

Zero-knowledge by design

We built it so that even we can't get in

No servers means there's nothing to breach, subpoena or sell. The only copy of your vault is the one you hold.

  1. Step 1

    Set a PIN, add biometrics

    Your PIN derives the key that unlocks a random 256-bit master key, sealed in the Android Keystore. The PIN itself is never stored.

  2. Step 2

    Everything is encrypted on your phone

    An encrypted database, with every item individually sealed using AES-256 and integrity-checked with HMAC-SHA256.

  3. Step 3

    Back up only if you want to

    Encrypted .pvbackup files go to your own storage. We never see them — or anything else.

Features

Powerful where it matters. Quiet everywhere else.

Serious tools for your digital life, wrapped in an app that feels calm to use.

Password generator

Strong, random passwords from 4 to 128 characters using a cryptographically secure generator.

Strength meter

See instantly how strong a password is while you type or generate it.

Two-factor codes (TOTP)

Generate 2FA codes right inside the vault — computed fully offline to the RFC 6238 standard.

Password health

Spot weak, reused and old passwords, and fix them one tap at a time.

Password history

Changed a password and need the old one? Previous values are kept, encrypted.

Clipboard auto-clear

Copied secrets are wiped from the clipboard automatically after 30 seconds.

Scan text from photos

Capture card numbers or document details with on-device text recognition. Images never leave your phone.

Reminders that survive reboots

Get notified before a card, passport or subscription expires — scheduled locally on your device.

Our promise

What we don't do matters as much as what we do

Most apps ask you to trust their cloud. Personal Vault removes the cloud from the equation.

Full disclosure: the app shows non-personalised ads from Google AdMob, which processes limited device data to serve them. Your vault is never available to it. Privacy Policy

No account

No sign-up, no email address, no password to a service that could be breached.

No servers

We don't run a cloud. Your vault never passes through infrastructure we control.

No analytics

No tracking SDKs in the app. We don't know what you store, or how you use it.

No sale of data

We don't have your data to sell — and we wouldn't if we did.

FAQ

Questions, answered honestly

Can't find what you need? Browse all FAQs or contact us.

Is Personal Vault really free?

Yes. Every feature — all seven vault categories, the password generator, 2FA codes, password health, backups, import and export — is free with no limits. The app shows non-personalised ads.

Do I need to create an account?

No. There is no sign-up, no email address and no online account. You set a PIN on your phone and start using the vault immediately.

Can you see my passwords?

No. We don't run servers and your vault never leaves your device unless you create a backup or export — and backups are encrypted before they leave. We have no way to read, reset or recover your data.

What happens if I forget my PIN?

If you enabled fingerprint or face unlock you can still get in. Otherwise your vault cannot be recovered — not by you, and not by us. That's the trade-off of real encryption. If you have a backup protected with a backup password, you can reinstall and restore it.

Why does a privacy app show ads?

Ads let us keep every feature free without accounts, subscriptions or collecting your data. The app requests non-personalised ads only, and your vault contents are never available to the ad SDK.

How do I move my vault to a new phone?

Create a backup protected with a backup password, then install Personal Vault on the new phone and restore from that backup (by copying the file across). Without a backup password, a backup is tied to the original device.
