What better way to keep your media safe than to encrypt your files and hide them behind an iOS app that appears to be nothing more than a stylish calculator? KYMS (Keep Your Media Safe) encrypts all your multimedia files, photos, documents, passwords and much more, then stashes them inside a military-grade vault that’s hiding in plain sight.
KYMS is the definitive security app for iOS, now fully encrypted with industry-standard AES. KYMS is the only app on the App Store that allows you to encrypt any file and decrypt in real time while you watch: That is, you can import and encrypt a video file and play it without having to wait for its decryption.
KYMS offers wide compatibility with most video formats — not only standard iOS formats (m4v, mov, mp4, etc.) but also avi, mkv and flv. All these file types can be decrypted and played in real time.
Beyond its core multimedia-encryption features, KYMS offers a full-featured, multi-tab web browser with a powerful, integrated downloader. It detects any playing video and gives you the option to download it while the app works in the background. All downloaded files are encrypted and saved to your archive. The browser temporary files are also encrypted to maximize privacy.
KYMS also includes a customizable database to create and securely store PINs and passwords.
More than just military-grade encryption
KYMS is much more than just a military-grade encryption app camouflaged by a calculator. Its contacts archive lets you import contacts from your smartphone or create new, private, encrypted contacts that can include photos and details about the person.
You can also store bank and loyalty cards in KYMS’ wallet. Simply take front and back photos of your credit and debit cards; the app automatically captures information from the cards’ numbers and bar codes.
KYMS also offers an audio recorder, a handy photo editor to quickly edit images without having to save them back to your device’s photo library, and a powerful document scanner with automatic edge-detection that allows you to easily create encrypted, multipage PDF documents and save them in KYMS’ archive.
You can download KYMS for $1.99 from the App Store. An in-app purchase of $2.99 lets you upgrade to the premium version, which includes the premium features (contacts, tasks, audio recorder, wallet and document scanner).
