Open the MaxVault app and tap on the Info button on the top left of the screen to view a live demo of the app.
To protect your privacy, MaxVault hides and stores your files in your device only. They never go on the
Internet or stored on any server.
Note that if you delete the MaxVault app, your files saved in the app will also be deleted.
Make sure to backup your files to your computer if you need to delete the app for any reason.
You can transfer your files to your computer using the WiFi Transfer feature in the app. You can also copy/move your files to the iTunes Files folder in the app and access them from the iTunes app as explained here.
All the files in MaxVault are automatically transferred to the new phone when you use the iOS backup/restore feature. MaxVault also offers three options to transfer your files to the new device:
If you have already purchased the Premium version, you don't need to pay again when you delete/reinstall your app. Just open the MaxVault app and select the Restore Purchase button on the screen. Then enter the same Apple ID you used to upgrade the app.
You will need to have already created a password recovery account in the App Settings to recover passcode. MaxVault specifically prompts you to create one when you set the launch passcode.
When you enter wrong passcode 5 times consecutively, MaxVault will prompt you to send your passcode (or folder password) to your recovery email address.
Tap on the Settings button of the video file and select the Settings option. Then choose the Icon option to see the screen where you can change the frame for the video by scrolling or swiping the keyframe to the right.
You can create as many vaults as you need. Secondary vaults can only be created when you are in the Primary vault. Note that most of the app settings are not available in the secondary
vaults.
When you import a file from another app using MaxVault Sharing Extension, they will be automatically saved in the Imports folder of primary vault.
When you create a new vault, you have to assign it a unique passcode. The only way to switch between them is just opening the app and entering the passcode assigned to that specific vault.

iTunes Files and iCloud Drive folders cannot be password protected since they can be accessed from computer or other devices using the same Apple account. Please move them to other folders inside the app if you want them locked.
Bookmark files are just a shortcut to open a website. Instead of opening the Web Browser and selecting a bookmark from menus, simply tap on the bookmark item on the folder to open it in the web browser. Bookmark files can be saved in any folder.
Tap on the Select button on top right of the screen to go to selection mode. In the selection mode, you can swipe to select items quickly or just choose the Select All option from the navigation bar.
