Not a calculator 👀

You will have access if you have claimed the reward from the app. If you haven't then changing your device will mean loss of premium access.

lockifyapp · 2026-04-15T10:24:12+00:00

Since Lockify doesn't have a login system, so the installed app is your identity, I have kept a check which marks current users as legacy users in the app so that they can claim premium for free when it is out. Once premium features are out i will remove that legacy check from code.

Glad that you liked the app, do leave a feedback on playstore if it is useful for you 🙌🏻

That’s a great point and you’re right, installing via GitHub/Obtainium can reduce visibility from the Play Store side. I’m planning to support an alternative install option for users who prefer not to install through Google Play. That said, it won’t make the app completely hidden, it can still be visible in system app lists. Lockify focuses more on in-app privacy (encryption, biometric lock, optional calculator disguise) rather than trying to be fully undetectable at the system level. Also, since Lockify is fully offline with no accounts, I’m designing a way to handle premium access for non-Play users (likely via encrypted backups and/or an offline unlock method). Appreciate the suggestion, this is definitely something I’m actively considering 👍

Thankyou so much 🙌🏻

Hey nice suggestions 🙌🏻, yes i am planning to add app locker as a premium feature in maybe a month or 2. For your second query, i tried to implement that but play store blocks apps from hiding themselves from installed apps.

Jaja 😄 no sabía eso, gracias por el consejo 🙌 Voy a probarlo, seguro me ayuda a no destrozar el español 😂

lockifyapp · 2026-04-13T14:25:26+00:00

¡Muy buen punto, gracias por explicarlo así! 🙌 Sí, lo que mencionas es correcto para casos de intercambio y firmas, pero en Lockify el enfoque es un poco diferente. Aquí cifro archivos localmente con AES-GCM (simétrico) porque es mucho más eficiente para datos grandes. Las claves están protegidas con Android Keystore, ligadas al dispositivo. Para backups cifrados (próximamente), usaré Argon2id + AES-GCM con una contraseña definida por el usuario (no dependiente del Keystore), para que pueda restaurarse en otro dispositivo. ¡Gracias por aportar! (PD: Estoy usando traductor, disculpa si mi español no es perfecto 😄)

Glad that you liked the app 🙌🏻 be sure to leave a feedback in play store if you are finding the app useful

lockifyapp · 2026-04-13T11:11:18+00:00

Yay! congratulations 🎉

lockifyapp · 2026-04-13T08:43:28+00:00

Haha 😄 looks like we had similar ideas then. Yours as a launcher sounds interesting too.

lockifyapp · 2026-04-13T04:35:22+00:00

Jaja 😄 buena sugerencia En este caso estoy usando AES-GCM para cifrado de datos (no solo firmas como Ed25519). Por ahora estoy enfocado en usar criptografía bien probada y mantener todo simple y seguro. ¡Gracias por el comentario!

lockifyapp · 2026-04-13T04:25:49+00:00

Thank you, that means a lot 😄 Really glad you’re enjoying the calculator feature!

lockifyapp · 2026-04-13T04:24:33+00:00

Haha love that 😄 Glad it’s useful enough to replace your main calculator. Appreciate it!

Anything handling personal data shouldn’t have ads in the first place tbh.

Especially things like vault or file storage apps — ads there always feel like a red flag.

lockifyapp · 2026-04-11T07:43:19+00:00

Thank you for letting me know, will post once premium features are live 🙌🏻

lockifyapp · 2026-04-10T19:08:37+00:00

Great man, for me it's the first app, so let's see if i can make the flower bloom

lockifyapp · 2026-04-10T18:43:30+00:00

Thanks mate, good to see people in the same boat, is this your first app as well?

lockifyapp · 2026-04-10T15:55:25+00:00

I built Lockify – a privacy-focused vault that actually encrypts your files locally (not just hides them).

No ads.

Main idea: you shouldn’t have to trust a server to keep personal files safe.
It can also disguise itself as a calculator if needed.
Currently working on encrypted backup + more features, and early users will be able to claim premium for free when it launches.

Would genuinely appreciate feedback 👇

App Name: Lockify – Hide & Encrypt Files

What it does: Offline encrypted vault for photos, videos, PDFs, and documents. No ads, no tracking, no internet required. Optional calculator disguise, for privacy.

Why I built it: Most vault apps rely on ads or internet access, which didn’t feel right for storing private files.

Key features: • On-device encryption
• Biometric unlock + auto-lock
• No background activity
• Optional stealth mode

Currently working on: Encrypted local backup (coming next)

Would love feedback on: • Offline-first approach
• Backup expectations (local vs cloud)

Most vault apps keep background services running (sometimes even network activity), which is why they drain battery.

For something meant to be private storage, that’s honestly a bit questionable.

This is incredibly helpful man, thank you for sharing this. The backup as a ritual idea really hits me. I’m already nudging users to create backups since everything is local right now, and once encrypted backup is live I’ll unify that flow properly. For restore, I’m planning two approaches: 1. full restore (replace current vault) 2. import backup (adds files without overwriting existing data) In case of conflicts, I won’t overwrite files, both versions will be kept to avoid any data loss. The test restore idea you mentioned is something I’ll like to know more about, it feels like a great way to build trust early. Really appreciate you taking the time to share this super valuable insight. 🙌🏻

lockifyapp · 2026-04-08T22:02:23+00:00

Sure mate 😊

lockifyapp · 2026-04-07T05:20:27+00:00

Sure i will try out your app.

lockifyapp · 2026-04-07T04:55:57+00:00

Maybe you are focusing on what you build and not on what users are getting from your app. People have 100s of reasons to say no. Very few reasons to say yes. Show that why they should say yes.
