Nygma: Encrypted Photo Vault

Nygma is an encrypted photo vault and secure cloud storage for the photos, videos and documents you would rather keep to yourself, with a private chat for the people you choose. Everything is encrypted on your phone before it is uploaded. Our servers store only data they cannot read (zero-knowledge encryption), so not even we can open your files.

Your private photo vault
• Hide photos and videos from your gallery: move them into an encrypted drive, then remove the originals from your phone if you choose
• Add documents, take photos and videos straight into a drive, or share files into Nygma from other apps
• Keep different parts of your life in separate drives, each with its own password
• Deleted files stay in Trash for 30 days

File names and previews are encrypted too
Many mainstream cloud services can read your files, their names and your photo previews. Nygma encrypts all three on your phone before anything is uploaded. Tap Proof of encryption on any photo to see the scrambled copy our servers hold.

Private chat, end-to-end encrypted
• An invite-only messenger: no phone number, no directory, and nobody can look you up
• Invite someone in person with a QR code, or send a one-time link plus a 6-digit code
• Send messages, photos, videos, files, voice notes and your location, all end-to-end encrypted
• Reply, react and edit. Delete a message for everyone
• Protect a chat to block screenshots on both phones
• Messages disappear after 7 days by default, or after 24 hours or 30 days, or never
• Chats have their own PIN, and an optional 8-word check with a contact
• Block and delete, or report a problem, from Chat info

Duress protection: a separate password for a separate drive
On Professional and Power, Duress protection lets you set a second password that opens a separate drive you fill yourself. If your phone is ever lost, stolen or taken from you, that password opens only that drive, and your other drives stay locked. Chats can have a duress PIN too, on every plan: it opens an empty Chats screen and locks your drives. Set it up in the Security tab. Duress protection is a technical feature, not legal advice: laws in some countries require you to disclose passwords. Know your local law.

Made for every day
• Open a drive with a 6-digit quick PIN
• Lock the app with your fingerprint, face unlock or screen lock
• Drives lock again when you leave the app, right away or after a time you choose
• An optional setting blocks screenshots and screen recording while a drive or chat is open
• Drives you have unlocked before open offline. New files upload when you are back online
• Share files or folders with a private link, decrypted in the recipient's browser, with an optional password and expiry date. Revoke it at any time
• Use the same account on the web at nygma.genie9.com. Chats stay in the app on your phone

Your keys, your recovery
Each drive has its own 24-word recovery key, which gets you back in if you forget the drive password. We never hold your keys, so we cannot reset it for you. Sign in with your email and a one-time code, or with Google: there is no Nygma password to forget or leak.
