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.

How 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.

  1. Before changing phones, check that iCloud backup has completed and keep your recovery key in a safe place outside the vault.
  2. Sign in to the same Apple Account on the new iPhone. Open Mo Layer and follow the recovery prompts; use your recovery key if the vault key is unavailable.
  3. Open important files to verify recovery before erasing the old device. Originals may download when opened; keep network access available.

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.
