Pick Photok if…
It suits Android users who want local encryption and vault features without required cloud storage. Choose the distribution variant based on telemetry defaults and Pro availability.

It suits Android or iOS users who want a pattern-protected place for private files, photos, and videos. Users who need recovery should keep the phrase safe, since losing it along with the pattern makes the vault unrecoverable.
