Is Plus a subscription?

No. Plus is a one-time purchase that unlocks unlimited local storage forever — there's no recurring charge. Everything you save stays viewable and exportable, always.

How do I hide photos on iPhone with Tuckaway?

Import photos and videos from Photos — or shoot them in Tuckaway — and they're encrypted into your private gallery or a hidden vault. Tuckaway then offers to delete the originals from Photos (iOS asks you to confirm). Deleted items remain in Photos' Recently Deleted album for up to 30 days unless you permanently delete those items sooner.

What if I forget my passphrase?

It can't be recovered — by design. Your encrypted-vault passphrase is never stored anywhere, not even by us, so there's no reset link and no backdoor. Choose something you'll remember.

Does iCloud backup see my photos?

No. Device backups include only encrypted vault data. The everyday gallery key is kept separately in iCloud Keychain, and hidden-vault passphrases are never stored by Tuckaway.

Do you collect any data?

No account and no vault-data server. Your media stays encrypted on your device, and the product is built so we can't see your vault data.

Is there an Android version?

Not today. Tuckaway is iOS-only, built directly on Apple's security stack — Face ID, iCloud Keychain, and iOS Data Protection.

TUCKAWAY

Hide photos & videos: Your photos. Your eyes only.

A private gallery you open with Face ID. Encrypted vaults that open only with your passphrase. Built on your iPhone's security — designed so only you can unlock them.

Privacy you can feel.

Layers that work quietly together.

Face ID Private Gallery

Open your everyday private gallery with Face ID. No password to remember for daily use.

Hidden Vaults

Create encrypted vaults unlocked by a passphrase. Hidden-vault access is intentionally neutral: Tuckaway is designed not to reveal whether a vault exists, is empty, or is protected by a different passphrase.

Folder PIN Lock

Lock individual folders with a 6-digit PIN. Privacy is granular, not all-or-nothing.

On-Device Encryption

Your media is encrypted on your device before it's stored in Tuckaway. There's no Tuckaway account and no vault-data server — no way for us to see it.

Built-in camera and scanner Plus

Shoot photos and video, or scan documents to PDF, straight into your vault — nothing lands in your camera roll on the way. The viewfinder reads QR codes, too. Included with Plus.

Lock Screen capture Free

Add the Tuckaway control to your Lock Screen or Control Center and shoot photos, Live Photos, and videos without unlocking — Portrait mode included, and it reads QR codes too. Your shots skip your camera roll and are encrypted into Tuckaway the next time you open the app. Requires iOS 18 or later.

Private on-device search

Find photos by date, location, camera details, and text visible in an image. Search indexing happens on your device.

Built like a vault.

The principles we don't bend on.

Encrypted at rest

Media, thumbnails, filenames, and dates saved in your gallery and vaults are encrypted on your device.

Folder PINs protect encryption keys

Each locked folder has its own encryption key, protected by a key derived from its PIN. Opening the gallery alone does not unlock the folder.

A neutral vault access screen

The vault access screen doesn't list hidden vaults or confirm whether a particular vault exists. A wrong passphrase and a missing vault give the same result.

Hidden vaults lock in the background

Hidden vaults lock when Tuckaway goes to the background. The app switcher shows a cover instead of your photos.

Your plan, your data

Everything you've already saved stays viewable and exportable, even if your plan changes.

Built on Apple's security

Face ID, iCloud Keychain, and iOS Data Protection help protect your data. Your hidden-vault passphrase is never stored.
