Why a built-in camera matters
When you take a picture with the iPhone Camera and move it into a vault later, it has already been in your library. It may have synced to iCloud Photos, appeared on your iPad or Mac, been analysed for Memories, and it still sits in Recently Deleted for 30 days after you remove it.
A photo taken with VaultBe's camera skips all of that. It goes from the sensor to an encrypted file in your vault.
How captures are handled
- Photos are captured in memory, encrypted and written to the vault. No unencrypted copy is saved.
- Videos are recorded to a protected temporary file inside the app, encrypted into the vault, and the temporary file is removed.
Good uses
- Passports, ID cards and bank cards
- Documents with signatures or medical details
- Anything personal you would not want in a shared family album

Common questions
Do photos taken in VaultBe show up in the Photos app?
No. They are saved only inside the vault, encrypted. They do not appear in Photos, iCloud Photos, Memories or shared albums.
