Introducing version 2.0 of PaperVault, now available for iOS and macOS! 😁

PaperVault is my niche app you can use for secure, long term storage of data in paper, using sequences of QR Codes. Use it for information you need if you lose your digital devices, like remote backup passwords, bank account details, etc.

Why paper? Digital media stops working after a few years. Paper lasts a lifetime is stored in a proper environment like a bank safe.

Happy PaperVaulting!

@arroz PaperVault looks cool, but it is not available in my App Store region (France). Any reason for not making it available worldwide?

@priteau It’s available everywhere but France, unfortunately. France has specific import requirements for products using encryption, the government websites aren’t great, the documentation is either missing or in French, and it’s not clear which forms I have to file, if any. So France is on hold until I have time and patience to deal with it. Sorry, I know it sucks but I don’t want to be breaking the law inadvertently.
