What Safety Photo+Video is
Safety Photo+Video keeps selected personal photos and videos in a private library apart from the everyday gallery. Users can sort files into albums, mark favorites, and capture new media inside the vault. Access can use a passcode or supported biometric unlock, depending on the device and app version. Individual albums can have their own passwords, and a different password can open a separate decoy vault. Files can also be transferred through a browser on the local Wi-Fi network.
The app is available for iPhone, iPad, and Android, with 10 GB of included storage and a free plan. Paid choices include $2.99 a month for 10 GB or iCloud Sync, a $4.99, paid once Pro upgrade, and additional storage and sync plans. With zero-knowledge backup enabled, media is encrypted on the device before upload and requires user-controlled credentials or recovery information. The maker says private media is not used for AI training; expired cloud backup is retained for 90 days. Support is by email, and the maker cannot recover an Encryption Password.
