The photo vault
with a kill switch.
Ghost removes supported metadata and locations from your photos, and gives you a Panic PIN that resets your private vault when you need it.

Good questions.
Simple answers.
Is Ghost available to download now?+
Not yet. Ghost is in pre-launch. Join the list and we'll email you when the iPhone app is ready.
What happens when I enter my Panic PIN?+
It opens an empty-looking vault and initiates a reset of Ghost's locally managed vault data. Other registered devices are instructed to reset once they reconnect and receive the request. Devices that are offline cannot be reset immediately.
Can I get my files back after a panic reset?+
With a paid plan, successfully backed-up files can be recovered with your separately saved recovery key and eligible Apple account. Without a backup, local-only vault contents may be permanently lost. Ghost cannot restore lost recovery keys.
Does Ghost erase my original photos?+
Ghost offers to remove originals after verifying their encrypted imports. You must confirm deletion. iPhone Photos may retain deleted images in Recently Deleted, and other backups or copies may still exist.
Will removing metadata make photos untraceable?+
No, but it helps tremendously. Removing supported photo metadata helps reduce information embedded in a file, including location tags, but does not guarantee perfect anonymity or eliminate all identifying information.
Where is my cloud backup stored?+
Paid cloud backup is planned to use your own iCloud storage, with Ghost encrypting content on-device before upload so not even Apple can see the files. You'll need available iCloud space and a safely stored recovery key.
