How it worksDocuments

Secure passport storage

Keep passport copies encrypted, organized, and ready when you need them. Your original passport still belongs somewhere physically safe.

A passport scan contains your identity, photograph, and document number. Give that copy a private home instead of leaving it among everyday photos, messages, and email attachments.

Revault’s native iOS and Android apps require no Revault account. Vaults stay on-device unless you enable private iCloud or Google Drive sync, create an encrypted share, or explicitly export them. The web app uses a separate passkey account and cloud. Encrypted backups move vaults between them.

Make a readable copy

Capture the identity page clearly, check every edge, and open the image to confirm that its text is readable. Import it into your vault with a useful filename. Once the encrypted copy and a backup are verified, review the original scan in Photos, downloads, recently deleted items, and any automatic photo backups. Importing does not remove those copies.

Prepare before you travel

Keep a copy separate from the physical passport. Before leaving, download the encrypted file and test opening it without a connection on the device you will carry. Save your recovery key elsewhere. A scan can help you locate document details, but it does not replace a valid travel document or guarantee acceptance by an airline or border authority.

Your vault. Your key.

Revault encrypts file contents, names, and previews in your browser before uploading them. The service can still observe account associations, object counts, sizes, and timestamps. Encryption does not make every part of using a cloud service invisible.

Vault security & backups

Keep an encrypted backup outside this browser, and periodically validate a restore. Browser storage can be evicted, and clearing browser data removes cached encrypted files. An installed PWA is a convenient app experience, not a guarantee of permanent storage.
