SecurePix review
A practical free vault for hiding media across iOS and Android, with manual backup.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
SecurePix is a mobile privacy app for hiding photos, videos, documents and personal files from the regular gallery. Its clock-password vault is available on iOS and Android, making it suitable for people who want a straightforward cross-platform way to separate private media from everyday files. Private albums and folders organize photos, videos and documents, while the private browser extends the app beyond vault storage. On iOS, Face ID or Touch ID provides quick unlock; on Android, App Lock can protect selected applications.
The main feature set focuses on discreet access and selective recovery. A decoy vault provides a separate visible vault, which can be useful when a normal-looking collection is preferable to direct access to the primary vault. Incorrect password attempts can trigger intruder selfie capture. SecurePix also supports manual cloud backup and restore for selected vault files, but files remain local by default and backup is optional. That setup suits users who want local-first storage with a way to preserve chosen items, while people expecting automatic backup should look for a different approach.
Pricing is positioned around free access: the vendor website describes all features as free and ad-supported, while the App Store and Google Play listings show in-app purchases. The product’s focus is narrow and clear rather than an all-purpose security suite. Android users gain the extra App Lock capability, whereas iPhone and iPad users get Face ID or Touch ID quick unlock. Choose SecurePix for basic cross-platform vaulting, decoy access and privacy-oriented media organization; choose an alternative if automatic cloud backup, an ad-free experience or the same feature set across both mobile platforms matters most.
