Hidden Folder is not released yet. Each page below says which version a feature belongs to, and what it does not protect against.

Pattern lock

Draw a shape on a 5×5 grid. The shape becomes the key that opens your vault.

Each pattern opens its own vault. No list anywhere shows how many exist.

One designated pattern opens a decoy vault and quietly erases the others on this Mac.

A written sentence that reopens your vault if you forget the pattern. No account needed.

Your vault is encrypted on your Mac before it goes to iCloud. Apple only holds ciphertext.

Vault windows ask macOS to stay out of screenshots and screen sharing.

Key hierarchy, file format and threat model, in plain language. Open source, so you can check.

Planned: an unlocked vault shows up in the Finder sidebar and disappears when you lock.

Coming soon. Join the waitlist and we email the link.
