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.

Well...apparently they went all in on show as many adds as possible! Now the supposed fixed crash issue shows me adds just after logging in, click into a section...heres an add. Try to look at a pic or a video...heres an add. I watch more adds in this app then I look at my stuff that is vaulted!!! Looking for a new app to use because this on is almost useless now, and not even very secure to be honest. From what I understand the app literally just moves files, and changes the file extension.....

Dear user, Thank you for using Vault and sorry for your inconvenience. Technical staff found a crashed problem on some phone models, they have fixed it, please update new version in Google Play and try again. Would you mind rating us 5 stars? That would be very encouraging for us. Best regards!

Loved the app for the first year. It kept asking me to backup to Google, which is the reason I picked this app: my kids have access to my Google as a family account. I had no issues and then randomly photos or videos would just... disappear. So, yes, those bad eeviews are valid. I am missing items that I cannot get back and I don't understand why. They are things in the middle of my timeline with this app... I would understand "out with the old" but it seems random. You get to keep I'd say 80%

I've had this app for quite a few years and up until the past several months I loved it. Even told friends and family about it. I've tried renewing for months now and it won't allow me. Also lost pictures and videos. Sent many emails starting back in November 2019 addressing the problem and still haven't received a reply. NEED ASAP!!! If my problem with the application is addressed, I will gladly change this review.
