Made to hide what matters.
No jargon. Sealby does three simple jobs, properly.
Hide photos & videos
Keep private photos and videos in an encrypted vault only you can open — imported from your library, or captured straight in.
Encrypt important files
Passports, contracts, recovery codes, medical records — locked with serious encryption, readable only by you.
Full privacy on iPhone & iPad
No account, no cloud you didn’t choose, and nothing anyone can find — or even prove exists.
A full vault, not just a hidden album.

“Why not just the Hidden album, or a locked note?”
- Hidden album: opens with the same passcode as the phone — anyone you share it with is in, and everyone can see the album exists.
- Locked notes: note titles and the notes list stay visible; only the body locks — and it’s still tied to your device passcode.
- Sealby: photos, files and notes encrypted with AES-256, in vaults nobody can even prove exist.
Keep anything that shouldn’t be seen.
Photos and videos, passwords and 2FA codes, IDs, financial and medical records, crypto seed phrases — any file at all. If it’s private, it belongs in a vault.
Strong by architecture, not by promise.
Sealby’s privacy doesn’t depend on trusting a company. It comes from how the app is built — local-first, account-free, and encrypted with keys that live only on your devices.

Built to keep secrets,
not accounts.
Your privacy comes from how Sealby is built — local-first, account-free, and encrypted with keys that never leave your iPhone.
Readable by no one but you
No account, no servers, no master key. Not a third party, not even us — there is no key for anyone to hand over.
Encrypted on your device
Every file and note is sealed with AES-256-GCM before it is ever written or synced.
Unreadable in the cloud
What syncs to iCloud for backup is an opaque blob. Nothing can open it without your key.
Deniable by design
A different PIN opens a different vault. The number of vaults is forensically undetectable.
Deeper than a photo locker
First-class notes and rich text alongside any file — with folders, tags and instant search.
Hardware-backed keys
Keys live in the Secure Enclave, unlocked by your PIN, pattern or passphrase.
Your vault is waiting.
