Short answerSearch Photos for words like password, code and PIN (Photos reads text in images), move anything sensitive into a password manager or encrypted vault, delete the originals and empty Recently Deleted. Never store a crypto seed phrase as a screenshot.
Find them
In Photos, search for password, code, PIN, recovery, IBAN or seed. Photos recognises text in images. Or let VaultBolt's scan group them.
Decide where each belongs
- Logins and Wi-Fi: a password manager.
- Backup codes, bank details, documents: an encrypted vault.
- Crypto seed phrases: on paper, offline. Never as a photo.
Clean up
Delete the originals, empty Recently Deleted, and check other devices if iCloud Photos is on.
Frequently asked questions
Can VaultBolt find password screenshots?
Yes. The on-device scan groups screenshots that look like passwords or private messages.
Where should I keep passwords?
In a password manager, such as Apple Passwords. Use a vault for screenshots and documents you need to keep as images.
