Your photos, your eyes only. Not even we can see them.
Whisper
Share secrets securely. Self-destructs after viewing.
The actual product, not a mockup
Real screenshots of the Lockbox browser extension, which comes with the app.
A vault for the things you would not hand to a stranger
Three of these you will not find in 1Password or Bitwarden.
-
01
Private photos and files
A gallery nobody else can open. Import hundreds at once; they leave your camera roll and live encrypted, behind your master password. Not a folder you hope nobody taps.
-
02
Whisper: send it, then it is gone
Share a password, a photo or a document with someone who does not use Lockbox. They open it once. Then it erases itself, from their screen and from our server. No account, no trace.
-
03
A switch for if you stop coming back
Set a period of silence. If you do not unlock the app within it, the vault wipes itself. For the situations you would rather not have to explain.
The same job, priced two different ways
Prices checked April 2026. A subscription does not stop at the first year, so this is what each costs by the fifth.
Five years of a password manager. One of these is a purchase; the other two are rent.

Questions
Honest answers. No marketing spin.
It cannot be recovered. Lockbox uses zero-knowledge encryption, which means your master password never leaves your device and is never stored anywhere. This is a deliberate security decision. We recommend writing it down and storing it in a physical safe.
Yes. Lockbox is local-first, and encrypted cloud sync is included in the one-time price. Your passwords, 2FA codes, secrets and notes sync between your phone and the browser extension. Everything is encrypted on your device with a key derived from a sync passphrase that never leaves your devices, so our servers only ever hold blobs we cannot read. Sync is off until you turn it on.
Your data is stored entirely on your device. You can export everything to CSV or encrypted JSON at any time. Your vault is always yours, no matter what.
Yes. Everything is stored locally on your device. Passwords, 2FA codes, notes, files, and secrets all work without an internet connection. Cloud sync and Whisper sharing are the only features that need one.
No. Your photos and files are AES-256 encrypted on your device before they are stored. We use zero-knowledge architecture, which means we never have access to your encryption keys. We cannot see your photos, files, or any vault content. Nobody can. Not your phone manufacturer, not your cloud backup, not us. Your eyes only.
No. Lockbox is a password manager and private vault for everyone: passwords, 2FA codes, notes, photos, and files. There is a separate, unrelated developer tool called "Lockbox — API Key Wallet" that stores API keys for AI coding tools. Different product, different company, different website. We are Lockbox: Password Manager, on lockboxnow.app.
