Q&A:

1. What if I forgot my password?

If you have a security Email set up before, you should be able to see a "Forgot Password" en-trance once you input the wrong password. Tap on the entrance and follow the instructions to reset your password.

If you do not have a security Email but you had backed up your data to cloud space, then the data can be recovered from the cloud by reinstalling Vault app.


2. How do I enter vault in stealth mode?


1. Put Vault back to the phone’s home screen by adding Vault widget, once it appears on home screen, tap on it, and then input your password to enter, or,

2. Download "NQ calculator" in Google Play, open it, and input correct password then tap "=".


3. Why are my photos/videos lost?

Some cleaning or free storage apps may automatically delete Vault’s data folder used to store pictures and videos. So, as a best practice, please do not choose to delete Vault’s data folder and subfolders (mnt/sdcard/SystemAndroid) when you use such apps.

You can also backup your pictures and videos to cloud by using "Cloud Backup" feature in the premium page of Vault.

This app uses the Device Administrator permission.

I've been using and logged into vault premium for several years now and have already upgraded my phone from one to another with no issues. The problem I'm having now is that when i tried to renew the subscription it gives me an error message stating "Your network connection failed. We suggest you wait a few minutes and try again. " and never renewed so now it saying that my account is expired and no matter how many times i try I'm getting same message. Please fix.

Not loading or importing.... All of a sudden I can't get to any of my photos or videos. I also can't import new ones. Please fix this issue without me losing all my pics/videos. I have pics/videos of lost loved ones that were too painful to see on a daily basis. Please help! I've had this app for over 5 years and am even a upgraded paid "member." I've never had a problem before now.

Thank you for using Vault and sorry for your inconvenience. Your data are saved in the SD card and are not lost. Please don't uninstall the app. The technicians checked the problem that some users who upgraded the new version reported that the photos and videos could not be displayed. We will release a new version to fix it. Best Regards!

I really love everything about this app except my messages continue to show in my inbox...on my phone, they are placed in the vault and in regular messaging (SMS). Also, if you could figure out how to hide MMS too...would be great. Right now I have to screen shot, then save in photos in vault app. Oh, I am a bit disturbed I have had service for so long and I forget to update my credit card info in Google play so I was late with renewal and now have to pay 29.99 instead of 19.99....frustration!!!
