What it does
A beautifully engineered safe for your documents
Built for anything that matters. IDs, licences, permits, insurance, health records, certificates, contracts.
A vault for anything that matters
IDs, licences, permits, insurance, health records, certificates, contracts. If it matters to you, it belongs here.
Face ID or passcode lock
The whole app sits behind your biometrics or passcode, so a borrowed phone never becomes an open filing cabinet.
Encrypted on your device
Files are protected at rest using iOS file protection. Your documents live on your phone, not on our servers.
Smart detail reader
Hold Firm reads the text on a document to detect its type, number, issue date, and expiry date. It keeps the file created date separate from the issued date printed inside the document. No expiry found? It shows N/A and you can add it yourself.
Expiry reminders
Local notifications are scheduled ahead of time, so you hear about a renewal long before it becomes a problem.
Renewal insights dashboard
A readiness ring, a renewal timeline across 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, or 5 years, a coverage radar across life areas, a document type breakdown, and storage usage. No spreadsheets, just clarity.
How it works
Three steps, then it looks after itself
- 01
Add or scan a document
Import files in bulk or scan paper with your camera. Edge detection and auto capture handle the rest.
- 02
Hold Firm reads the details
The document type, number, issued date, and expiry date are detected automatically. Anything missing is easy to fill in yourself.
- 03
Get reminders before anything expires
Reminders are scheduled ahead of every expiry, and you can back up a copy to iCloud for peace of mind.
Privacy first
Your documents stay yours
Nothing is uploaded to us. Files are encrypted at rest on your device and the whole app is gated behind Face ID or your passcode. If you choose to back up, the copy goes to your own iCloud account, not to a server we control.
- No sign-up, no account, no profile
- Encrypted at rest with iOS file protection
- Backups go to your iCloud, under your control
- Your data is never sold or shared
