Overview
LifeVault is an iOS app that transforms document scanning into structured, searchable records for family organization. It uses OCR to extract key details from IDs, insurance cards, prescriptions, and more, then links them to individual profiles for family members, pets, and the household. The app emphasizes privacy with on-device storage and biometric protection, and offers one-tap generation of shareable PDF summaries for caregivers, schools, or emergency situations.
Key Features
- Document Scanning & Extraction: Scan any document; LifeVault extracts fields like name, date, and ID number, which you review and confirm before saving.
- Profile-Based Organization: Create profiles for each person, pet, and the household. Records are linked to the appropriate profile, with a timeline to track changes over time.
- Support Guides: Build customizable guides with sections for accommodations, triggers, calming strategies, and caregiver instructions — shareable as a clean PDF.
- Customizable Sections: Toggle which record categories appear per profile, reducing clutter for children or pets.
- Privacy-First: All data stays on-device; no cloud storage, no account required. Face ID/Touch ID protection.
- Offline Functionality: Full feature set works without internet, including scanning and extraction.
Target Audience
LifeVault is designed for families managing multiple members' documents — especially caregivers of aging parents, parents of young children, pet owners, and families with special needs. It also suits travelers needing quick access to passports and vaccination records.
Unique Selling Points
Unlike cloud document vaults or generic file storage, LifeVault structures extracted data into interconnected records. It combines document management with caregiver coordination, all without uploading data to servers. The support guide feature is particularly unique, offering a plain-language, shareable artifact for teachers and sitters.
Pricing
LifeVault is free to download and use. Higher limits for documents or family members may require a paid plan in the future, but existing records remain accessible on the free tier. No ads or data selling.
