Private photo and video vault for iPhone and iPad

A private camera roll for what matters most.

Sanctum gives personal photos and videos their own protected space, with encrypted sync, thoughtful sharing, and simple tools for keeping sensitive moments out of your everyday library.

  • Separate from PhotosKeep private media in a dedicated vault instead of your main camera roll.
  • Encrypted syncAccess your vault across devices without handing us your library.
  • Private sharingCreate shared albums for the people you choose.

Designed for discretion

Everything private media needs, without a feed around it.

Use Sanctum for the photos, videos, edits, and small albums that deserve more intention than a general-purpose library.

Locked personal vault

Move private photos and videos into a space that opens with Face ID, Touch ID, or your Sanctum password.

Sync across devices

Your vault follows you from iPhone to iPad through iCloud, while the actual media stays encrypted.

Invite-only albums

Share carefully with specific people, keep albums separate, and remove access when a group changes.

Capture in place

Take photos and videos directly into Sanctum instead of dropping them into your public camera roll first.

Censor and clean up

Blur, pixelate, or block sensitive details, then save a fresh copy without changing the original.

Export when needed

Send a single item plainly, or package selected media into an encrypted bundle for another Sanctum user.

Private by default

Your vault should feel yours.

Sanctum is built around a simple idea: personal media should not become someone else's dataset. Your library stays in your iCloud account, encrypted before sync, with no advertising profile or analytics trail attached.

No tracking SDKsNo ad identifiers, third-party analytics, or behavioral event collection.
