I made Media Den, a privacy-by-design iOS photo and video vault.
I launched in April, and I've been steadily updating it as time allows. Really happy with how far it's come. Here are the notable privacy-by-design features I've led with:
- Bring-your-own-storage
- End-to-end encrypted media (config stored encrypted in the secure enclave, cached data gets stored encrypted -- one exception is videos, which require on-disk passing to the native video player -- data gets stored on your cloud provider's system encrypted)
- Multi-cloud replication (and promotion from a replica to a new primary)
- Proximity-based no-internet local file sharing using ephemeral keys, with man-in-the-middle protection
- All the other typical non-shady features of a good vault (metadata removal, PIN auto-lock, privacy blur on app-switching)
- Zero telemetry, tracking, etc. There in fact no servers at all in the loop.
