HomeVault is a simple, private vault for your passwords, cards, notes, photos and documents. No account to create. No company servers holding your data. Nothing to sign up for — install it, set a master password, and start saving.

Your secrets live in exactly two places, both under your control: encrypted on your device, and (only if you choose) encrypted in your own Google Drive. There is no HomeVault cloud, no user database that can be breached, no third party in between. A smaller attack surface by design.

SECURITY AT EVERY STEP

• Everything is encrypted at rest with XChaCha20-Poly1305; your master password is strengthened with Argon2 key derivation. Your master password never leaves your device.
• Only the record you are currently viewing is decrypted, and only in memory. Every other record stays fully encrypted, even while the app is open.
• Rooted phone detection: HomeVault refuses to run on rooted or compromised devices.
• Screenshots and screen recording are blocked by default.
• The vault locks the moment the app leaves the screen; swiping it away or a reboot always forces a full unlock.
• Optional fingerprint / biometric unlock, backed by the Android Keystore hardware keys.
• Optional edit PIN: a separate code required before anything can be added, changed or deleted.
• A device-local vault log records vault opens, syncs, backups and restores — timestamps and event types only, never your data.
• No analytics, no trackers, no ads. The app talks to the internet only when you use Google Drive sync — and even then, only to your own Drive.

BACKUP AND FAMILY SYNC — ON YOUR TERMS

• Local backup: export your vault as a single encrypted file and keep it wherever you like — a USB drive, your PC, anywhere. Restore it on any phone with your master password.
• Google Drive sync (optional): keep several devices — or your whole family — on the same vault through your own Google Drive. The vault is end-to-end encrypted before it ever leaves the phone; Google only stores an encrypted blob it cannot read. HomeVault uses the most restrictive Drive permission available: it can only see the files it created itself, never the rest of your Drive.
• Changes from multiple phones merge safely, record by record, so two family members can update the vault without overwriting each other.

FILLS YOUR LOGINS, TOO

Turn on the optional Android Autofill integration and HomeVault offers your saved logins inside other apps and browsers — after unlocking the vault, of course.

HONEST ABOUT PERMISSIONS

• Internet — used only for optional Google Drive sync
• Camera — used only when you attach a photo to a record
• Notifications — used only to show the progress of a backup, restore or sync
That's it. No location, no contacts, no phone state.

WHAT'S FREE, WHAT'S PAID

No account either way, and no payment details to start.

• Free, with no time limit: a vault of up to 15 records with every security feature switched on — full encryption, autofill, biometric unlock, edit PIN, root detection.
• HomeVault Premium, one yearly subscription billed through Google Play: unlimited records, local backup and restore, and Google Drive sync across your devices.

A lapsed subscription never locks you out of your own secrets. Every record you have already saved stays readable and editable, forever. Only adding records beyond 15, backup/restore and cloud sync pause until you subscribe again.

SIMPLE ON PURPOSE

One master password. A clean list of your records. Search that works. Add passwords, bank cards, notes, photos of documents, and file attachments — all encrypted the same way. No ads, no upsell pop-ups, no account recovery emails, because there is no account.

Your secrets. Your device. Your Drive. Nobody else's.
