LockWhisper

Journalists and researchers can protect sources, notes, files, PGP keys, and private communications without handing vault contents to a cloud service. The app keeps sensitive work local unless you explicitly export it or sync it directly to another trusted device.

Lawyers, doctors, therapists, accountants, and other professionals with confidentiality obligations can keep client files, notes, contacts, and communications in encrypted local storage without trusting a cloud provider with that information.

Travelers and expats can keep passports, itineraries, identity records, emergency information, and sensitive notes available offline. Optional fake-password mode supports a separate decoy vault for situations where plausible deniability matters.

IT professionals and developers can keep credentials, API keys, 2FA codes, recovery material, server notes, files, and PGP keys together in one local-first workspace.

Anyone who has been through a data breach and decided they are done storing everything with remote services can use LockWhisper as a broad personal privacy toolkit with no LockWhisper account and no app tracking.

The customizable dashboard now supports layout presets, visual density, module grouping, widget resizing and reordering, hidden cards, pinned favorites, and a full reset. Common local actions are easier to reach without turning the dashboard into a feed of sensitive vault contents.

Privacy-safe cards surface Security Center score, actionable findings, and backup readiness. Loading, empty, warning, and locked states are clearer so the dashboard communicates what is ready, what needs attention, and what remains protected.

Dynamic Type, VoiceOver labels, Reduce Motion behavior, higher contrast, and right-to-left layouts improve access across iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Dashboard and customization surfaces are available in English, Russian, and Arabic.

LockWhisper stores supported sensitive data locally and encrypts vault content before persistence. The active authentication mode controls which data set is visible, so real-mode and fake-mode storage stay separated.

Shared security infrastructure handles encryption, key lookup, fake-mode routing, favorites, search indexing, imports, exports, themes, and Pro gating. Version 8 improves key backup, key import, recovery workflows, encrypted search, favorites, and undecryptable data handling.

Security Center highlights vault findings and actions that can improve protection. Auto-destruct, recovery options, jailbreak checks, debug checks, and YubiKey-assisted workflows provide additional layers for users with higher-risk threat models.

LockWhisper includes an optional fake-password system. Your real password opens your private vault, while a separate fake password opens a decoy vault with separate data.

The active mode routes storage, search, favorites, imports, exports, and module navigation to the correct data set. This means the decoy vault behaves like a real workspace without exposing the private vault behind it.

Version 8 improves fake-password routing and related UI flows so the system works more consistently across the redesigned dashboard and consolidated modules.

LockWhisper syncs supported data between trusted devices over encrypted peer-to-peer connections. There is no LockWhisper account and no central cloud database for vault contents.

Sync is a deliberate user action for trusted devices. Your vault remains local unless you choose to export it or move supported data directly to another device you control.

This gives iPhone, iPad, and Mac users a way to keep private workflows portable without making LockWhisper a cloud service.

Switching to LockWhisper does not mean starting over. CSV password import helps migrate credentials from password managers and browsers that support CSV export.

Version 8 polishes import flows, vault actions, wallet cards, calendar navigation, custom vaults, key backup and import, and migration handling. Scanner workflows can capture cards, IDs, QR codes, and OCR text for secure storage.

LockWhisper is free to download with core privacy tools available for everyday use. The Pro upgrade is a one-time purchase for advanced modules and premium security features. No subscriptions, no recurring account fee, and no LockWhisper cloud account required.
