How it works

One app. Three
deliberate views.

Walk through Liberty Lock: set it up once, see what each PIN opens, seal the vault in one tap, and preview the location rules planned for after launch.

Start with setup
Set up once

Four steps, done once, on your phone.

Choose what the vault holds, set your two PINs, decide what Secondary Access shows, and print your recovery kit. Step through it below; the toggles are simulated.

Planned for launchSimulated · fictional data

Turn on the kinds of things the vault should hold. Each type gets its own encrypted container, and nothing is moved or deleted from your phone.

Step 01 · Vault contents

What should live in the vault?

Each type gets its own encrypted container. Turning one on adds it to the vault; it doesn’t move or delete anything on your phone.

Everyday use

The view changes. Protected items don’t leak between states.

Everyday Access shows the app’s everyday view while the vault stays sealed. Your real PIN opens the Secure Vault. A second PIN opens Secondary Access, a separate space holding only ordinary content you chose in advance.

01 — Access states

One app. Three access states. A boundary you control.

Everyday Access and Secondary Access are views. The Secure Vault sits behind an access boundary and opens only with your real PIN.

    Crossing it takes your real PIN. Encryption and platform-protected keys are planned as core constraints.

    Credentials, recovery phrases, journals, photos and documents you choose to protect.

Quick Lock

Seal the vault in one tap, even offline.

The demonstration changes what Liberty Lock shows. It doesn’t imply a network request, remote deletion, control over other apps, or a measured speed.

  3. 03Vault sealed · everyday view

Seals Liberty Lock only. It doesn’t lock your phone or other apps.

Simulated app screens: the open vault seals and the app returns to its everyday view.
Trusted Signal
Coming later

A rule may change the view without becoming a server-side history.

Trusted Signal is planned for after launch. You’d set rules such as “seal the vault when I leave home.” The design target is that rules are checked on your phone, so the location that triggers a rule isn’t sent to Liberty Lock.

Separate from the proposed Panic Mode, which would share location with contacts you choose

Representation boundary

Readable on the device. Cipher-only across the boundary.

The object changes representation before an optional crossing. The service-side model contains no visual or functional path back to readable content.
