Clock vault app for sensitive data
Clock Vault-Hide Photos, Videos is a free utility application coming from developer WS Infortech. It is a gallery vault that lets users store their private photos and videos where no one can access or see them. It does so by disguising itself as a non-descript clock widget, making no one the wiser.
Compared to similar solutions like HideU: Calculator Lock or Vault, the Clock Vault boasts better usability and accessibility since it can easily be opened and accessed straight from the home screen, with password protection just in case it is accidentally tapped on by someone else.
More than just time
People take photos and videos to save precious memories and moments for posterity. As such, they would like to keep things private and away from prying eyes. This is why gallery vault apps became popular. They come in all sorts, usually posing as another app, but the Clock Vault app is one of the more unique implementations out there that stand out from the rest.
This vault app comes with pretty nice widget designs for both digital and analog styles. Once inside, you can organize your media and files with folders. Protect them with passwords or fingerprint biometrics. You can even create dummy vaults in case someone does tap the clocks to divert them to empty folders. There's a built-in player to view your media straight from your gallery.
Other extras include a built-in private browser, although it's pretty bare in options and features. One concerning thing, though, is that there have been multiple reports from users who are unable to get back inside their vaults despite inputting the correct passwords. This is a rather crucial issue and one that needs to be addressed and fixed as soon as possible.
In plain sight
All in all, if you're looking for a way to keep your photos and videos private, the Clock Vault-Hide Photos, Videos app is worth looking into. It's pretty easy to use and can be customized the way you like it. The dummy vault feature is a nice bonus and will come in handy in certain situations. Hopefully, the issue mentioned above gets fixed soon. Nevertheless, try it out now.
