Most photo vault apps just hide files in a folder. VaultIt encrypts every photo, video and document on your phone with AES-256, behind a pattern only you know. No account, no ads, no cloud. A 12-word recovery phrase so you are never locked out.

Could you build this?
Yes An Android app that encrypts local files with AES-256 behind a pattern lock and a recovery phrase can be built with standard Android crypto libraries and BIP-39-style phrase generation. Security review matters, but the components are well-documented and don't require novel research.
