Works for Secret Lock Vault With Cloud whether or not it has its own passcode. No download needed.

Short answer

Touch and hold Secret Lock Vault With Cloud's icon, tap Require Face ID, then confirm. On iOS 18 and later that puts Secret Lock Vault With Cloud behind Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode; choose Hide and Require Face ID instead to move it into App Library's Hidden folder as well.

Lock Secret Lock Vault With Cloud with Face ID

  1. Find Secret Lock Vault With Cloud on your Home Screen or in App Library.
  2. Touch and hold the icon until the quick-actions menu opens.
  3. Tap Require Face ID (or Require Touch ID / Require Passcode, depending on your iPhone).
  4. Tap Require Face ID again to confirm. Secret Lock Vault With Cloud now asks for authentication every time it opens.

To test it, close Secret Lock Vault With Cloud from the App Switcher and open it again. You should see the Face ID prompt before any content appears.

Hide Secret Lock Vault With Cloud in App Library

  1. Touch and hold Secret Lock Vault With Cloud's icon and tap Require Face ID.
  2. Choose Hide and Require Face ID instead of Require Face ID.
  3. Confirm. The icon leaves your Home Screen and moves to the Hidden folder at the bottom of App Library.
  4. To open it later, swipe to App Library, tap Hidden and authenticate.

Hiding also locks the app. To undo either, touch and hold the icon again and choose Don't Require Face ID.

Why lock Secret Lock Vault With Cloud?

Secret Lock Vault With Cloud is a encrypted notes app, the kind of app that tends to hold personal information you would not want on screen if someone borrows your unlocked phone. Notes apps quietly collect some of your most personal writing. 'Encrypted' can mean encrypted in transit, at rest on the server, or end-to-end — only the last keeps the developer out.

Productivity apps tend to collect the work you do in them — documents, notes and files — so User Content is common. The question is whether it syncs to the developer's servers and how it is protected there.

A lock answers one question — who can open the app on this iPhone. It does not change what Secret Lock Vault With Cloud sends to its developer; for that, see Secret Lock Vault With Cloud's full privacy report.
