PaperVault — encrypted QR codes for sensitive documents

PaperVault is an app reported for Mac and iPhone that converts personal documents into encrypted QR codes. The QR codes can only be decrypted with a password, which lets users store or share sensitive data (IDs, medical info, bank details) in a compact, offline-friendly format.

How it works

  • Users input text or scan documents into the app.
  • The app packages the data into an encrypted payload and encodes it as a QR code.
  • Anyone with the QR (image or printout) needs the correct password in the app to decrypt and view the original content.

Key points

  • Developer named in reporting: Miguel Barreto.
  • Focus: privacy by encrypting content before encoding it as a QR code.
  • Use cases: secure offline storage, controlled sharing, printing sensitive info without exposing it at a glance.
