Decoy mode

Travel mode is useful when you can anticipate elevated risk and have time to prepare, but not if you get caught off guard. A decoy mode that can be quickly activated at any time, unnoticable to spying eyes, would on the other hand be supremely useful.

A typical implementation of such a decoy mode would be using a decoy password/passcode, which when entered appears to unlock the app but instead shows a selection of fake or less sensitive/valuable content.

Biometrics will likely be incompatible with such a feature, but I would gladly trade Face ID for decoy mode.

  • Hello Bruce​! 👋

    Thank you for the suggestion! I can see how a decoy mode, similar to Veracrypt's Hidden Volumes feature, would be useful and I've filed a feature request on your behalf. 

    While I can't make any promises, our product team will consider adding such a feature in the future.
