KeepsakeHow can we help?
Getting started
Getting started on Windows
Install Keepsake on Windows, create your vault, and add your first documents.
Getting started on Android
Set up Keepsake on Android — create or restore a vault, scan documents with the camera, unlock with biometrics.
Getting started in the browser (and on iPhone)
Use the Keepsake web app — create a vault in the browser, install it to your home screen, work offline.
Keepsake on a Mac or a Linux machine
There is no Mac app and no Linux package. The web app installs to the dock and works offline — and this page says plainly what you give up by using it.
Guides
The Family File — the documents every household should hold
"A checklist of the 22 documents a household needs, why each matters, who issues it and how long it takes to replace. 14 apply to nearly every family; the rest depend on your circumstances."
Your Recovery Kit
What the 24-word Recovery Kit is, why it matters, and how to use it to restore access to your vault.
Setting up sync (Drive, OneDrive, WebDAV, folder)
Connect Keepsake on all your devices through your own cloud — Google Drive, OneDrive, WebDAV or any folder.
The Legacy Access Kit
Split your vault key into three shares so any two trusted people can open it if you can't — no company, no cloud.
Using Travel Mode
Pack passports and tickets into an offline, PIN-locked capsule that expires after your trip.
Setting up a Family Vault
Share documents with up to 6 family members through a folder you control — access enforced by keys, not server rules.
Sharing with Secure Send
Send a document as a one-shot encrypted link with expiry, burn-after-read and an optional PIN.
OCR, auto-filing and the Identity Card
How Keepsake reads documents on your device, fills in the details, and collects identity fields into one card.
Expiry alerts and renewal checklists
How Keepsake warns you before documents lapse and hands you the right renewal steps for your country.
Moving documents between your phone and PC
Pair the Android app with the Windows app over your own Wi-Fi — scan a code, transfer both ways, no cloud in between.
Saving pages from your browser (clipper)
Send a statement, receipt or booking confirmation from any tab straight into your web vault, encrypted in your own browser.
Printing documents into your vault (Windows)
Add a "Keepsake" printer to Windows, then print any statement, ticket or confirmation straight into your vault.
Understanding a document quickly (digest & translation)
Get the key facts and the important sentences from a long letter — and, where your browser supports it, an on-device translation.
Asking your vault a question
"When does my passport expire? What's my policy number? Answered from your own documents, on your device."
Moving documents out of a Cryptomator vault
Keepsake reads a Cryptomator vault directly and files what is inside it — without decrypting everything to a folder first.
If someone can make you give up the password
Keepsake has no hidden vault and no decoy password. If your threat model is being compelled to unlock, this page says what to use instead — and it is not us.
Using VeraCrypt and Keepsake together
VeraCrypt for the bulk archive, Keepsake for the documents with dates on them — and a mounted container is just a folder to Keepsake's importer.
