Include your app version, iOS version, and a description of the problem. Use sample filenames and remove personal content from screenshots. Never send passwords, codes, encryption keys, or private vault attachments.

Current test version: there is no backup or recovery service, and independent security review is pending. Keep another copy of anything important. Support cannot recover a missing device key.

Common questions

What does offline mean? Do I need an account?

Your vault is stored on your device. You do not need a Sable account to save or open files. Unlock uses your device’s authentication. Purchases, restoring subscriptions, and downloading originals from a cloud file provider require internet access. There is no Sable cloud backup or sync.

How do I add photos, videos, and other files?

Unlock the vault, choose the relevant import option, then select items in Photos or Files. Imported videos appear in the Videos area. Sable creates independent copies; your originals stay where they are. A cloud provider may need to download a selected original first.

If I delete an original, does Sable keep its copy?

Yes, a successfully completed import creates an independent local copy. Verify that it opens or exports correctly before changing an original. This test version should not be your only copy of important material because it has no backup or recovery.

What do the free and Plus plans include?

Free allows one photo, one video, and one other file, up to 25 MB each. PDFs, audio, documents, and other formats share the one-file slot. Items in Trash still count.

Sable Plus removes Sable’s item-count and import-size limits. Capacity depends on available device storage, including room for encrypted copies and temporary transfers. Plus does not add phone storage or cloud backup. The intended U.S. plan is $5.99 per month; Apple’s purchase screen shows the price and renewal terms before you buy.

What happens if my subscription ends?

Saved items remain available to open and export. Sable does not delete them because a subscription expires or is refunded. New imports return to the free allowance.

How do I restore, cancel, or manage a subscription?

Open Your Plan in the app and choose Restore Purchases using the Apple Account that made the purchase. Internet access is required. To cancel, open iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Sable Plus, then choose the available cancellation option. See Apple’s subscription instructions. Deleting the app does not cancel billing.

If a purchase is pending approval, wait for Apple’s decision. For billing or refund requests, use Apple’s support and purchase tools. Do not email us card details or verification codes.

Why won’t a video or large document preview?

Playback and previews depend on the format and device. Some large documents can be stored and exported without an in-app preview. Confirm there is enough free storage for temporary working copies. Avoid uninstalling the app to troubleshoot; that can remove the local vault.

How do exports and Trash work?

Export saves an unencrypted copy in a location you choose. The destination app or cloud provider may retain or upload that copy. Moving an item to Trash is reversible and does not permanently delete it. The current version has no command to permanently delete individual items.

Can support unlock or recover my vault?

No. The device-only key is not sent to us. Losing it, removing your device passcode, uninstalling the app, or erasing the device can make files unavailable. Export and verify copies while you still have access. Do not remove the app, reset your passcode, or erase the device as a troubleshooting step.

Where can I ask a privacy question?

Read the privacy policy or email sablevaultsupport@gmail.com. We can address information you send to support; we cannot inspect or remotely delete the vault on your device.
