Questions people ask before trusting a private vault.
Does Mo Layer upload readable private files?
No. The product is designed around local-first protection. Optional iCloud sync stores encrypted content, and the developer does not hold your decryption key.
Is this only for photos?
No. Mo Layer is designed for photos, videos, screenshots, IDs, contracts, receipts, links, and important files.
Is Apple’s Hidden album enough?
Apple’s Hidden album can require authentication on supported systems and is suitable for hiding photos and videos. Mo Layer provides a separate archive for media and documents, with folders and a decoy space. Choose based on file types, organization and recovery needs; a separate app is not automatically more secure.
Apple: hide photos and videosHow do I recover Mo Layer on a new iPhone?
Recovery requires an existing encrypted iCloud backup and access to the vault key through iCloud Keychain or your recovery key. Reinstalling the app or restoring a Pro purchase alone does not recover missing files or keys.
What is free, and what does Pro change?
Free includes 5 GB of vault capacity with no file-count limit, plus backup and restore. Pro removes the app’s 5 GB limit; device storage and iCloud capacity still apply. Existing files remain accessible after Pro expires. Check the App Store purchase sheet for current local prices and billing terms.
