Zero-Knowledge Local Storage

Encrypted Secret Vault

The HideMyMessages Vault allows you to organize and store steganographic carrier drafts and decrypted secrets directly in your browser. All records are isolated in local memory—zero server databases, zero remote access.

How the Encrypted Vault Works

The Secret Vault is an integrated productivity feature designed for users who frequently encode or decode hidden messages. When you click "Save to Vault" inside any tool suite:

  1. Your payload, selected carrier emoji or text snippet, timestamp, and optional method tag are serialized into a clean JSON record.
  2. The record is written directly into your browser's private localStorage sandbox under the key secret-hider-vault.
  3. No network request is dispatched. You can verify this in Chrome DevTools under the Network tab (zero HTTP POST or PUT requests).
