| Fact | Vaultly | Weave Vault |
|---|---|---|
| Backup | Users can export an encrypted backup protected by a passphrase they choose and save it to Files, iCloud Drive, a computer, or another device. | Encrypted backup is opt-in, requires Pro, and stores ciphertext in the user’s iCloud or Google Drive; restoring does not require Pro. |
| Encryption | The site says each file is encrypted on device with AES-256-GCM. | AES-256-GCM seals imported files, thumbnails, metadata, vault manifests and key-wrapping headers before storage. |
| Permissions | The privacy policy says photo library, camera, and biometric permissions are optional, and declining them leaves the rest of the app functional. | The app requests camera, photo/file picker and network access only when needed and does not request location, contacts or microphone access. |
| Product | Vaultly is a photo vault app for iPhone and iPad that encrypts photos and videos on the device. | Weave Vault is an encrypted vault for private photos, videos, and files. |

Pick Vaultly if…
Vaultly suits iPhone and iPad users who want local, encrypted photo storage without an account. It is also relevant for people needing decoy access, intruder alerts, and exportable encrypted backups.
Pick Weave Vault if…
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.
