수요 읽기

두 모델이 독립적으로 평가 (측정 아님, 애널리스트 의견)

의견 갈림
Opus
원함iOS 숨김 앨범이 있어도 위장 계산기, 별도 암호 볼트 앱에 수백만 리뷰가 쌓여 실수요는 분명하다
Codex
안 원함많은 리뷰는 기존 수요의 흔적이지만, 사진 숨김·잠금은 기본 앱으로 충분해 새 앱을 설치할 이유가 약하다.

Opus와 Codex 두 AI의 읽기입니다. 측정된 수요가 아니라 판단이에요. 둘이 갈리면 그만큼 불확실하다는 뜻입니다.

리뷰가 말하는 불만

경쟁앱 리뷰 90개에서 추출

Excessive interstitial ads making the app unusable자주
  • “Have fun watching ads every 10 seconds.”
  • “There is an ad every 30 seconds so scrolling through old photos is close to impossible”
  • “The free version runs ads so constantly you have to buy the subscription just to be able to view photos.”
  • “Bought subscription and still have ads?”
제품 기회

Cap ads at a sane rate or go paid-only with a free trial. Users explicitly say they would pay or already paid and still see ads, so a trustworthy ad-light or one-time purchase model stands out.

Data loss on update, reinstall, or new phone자주
  • “After updating, the app completely changed its security system... everything I had stored was gone.”
  • “I recently got a new iPhone just to find out that all of it is gone.”
  • “I deleted the app... downloaded it again it rested like a first time user”
  • “if you delete or reset your phone you will loose everything”
제품 기회

Local-first storage with reliable device-to-device migration and an optional clear iCloud backup. Marketing can lead with 'your photos survive updates and new phones', since every top app gets burned here.

No password recovery path자주
  • “there’s no way to reset or access or photos if you forgot your password”
  • “I forgot my password and have no clue how to get back in”
  • “Forgot how to get in. Any help?”
제품 기회

Optional, clearly explained recovery flow (recovery code at setup plus a hint system that does not compromise the vault). Users know they forgot, they just need a way back in without calling support.

Import and playback bugs보통
  • “It takes 3-7 tries to upload photos or videos despite the app having full permissions”
  • “It will upload pictures but not videos”
  • “Last two videos uploaded... seem to be corrupted”
  • “I hid a video that’s 1.19 gb and I can’t open it”
제품 기회

Just make PhotoKit import and large video playback work. Boring reliability is a differentiator when incumbents break on updates.

Unresponsive or missing support보통
  • “customer service is a joke. No number to call, no nothing”
  • “I tried to chat with the support people for this app. They stopped to answer me”
  • “Unable to find any useful information about how to retrieve a forgotten password.”
제품 기회

An in-app FAQ plus a real support email answered within a day. Solo dev can beat big players here cheaply.

개발 난이도와 리스크를 분해

규모한 달서버불필요 (온디바이스)
⚠ PhotoKit and file encryption done right takes care, do not rush the data layer⚠ Encryption apps face extra App Store scrutiny, avoid exporting user data⚠ Users will blame you for data loss even when they deleted the app

Very buildable for a solo dev. Everything runs on-device with PhotoKit, local encrypted storage, and optional iCloud documents so no server is needed. The hard part is data safety, not features.

만든다면, 이렇게

1페이지 기획서 (출발점, 정답 아님)

A private photo vault with a working recovery code, sane ads, and photos that survive updates and new phones.

누구에게

US iPhone users who want to keep personal photos and videos private, often from partners or family members who share the device.

어떤 문제

Every top vault app loses user photos on updates or device changes, locks people out forever when they forget their password, and blasts ads every few seconds.

MVP 기능
  • ·Cloud account required to unlock anything
  • ·Full-screen ads every swipe or ad-free claims that still show ads
  • ·Renaming or restructuring the storage format in updates without a migration path
만들지 말 것
    가장 작은 버전

    Calculator-disguised local vault with Face ID, real math, a recovery code shown once at setup, and one-time 'restore purchases' plus iCloud Documents backup. Ship on iOS only.

    수익 모델

    Free tier with genuinely limited ads (interstitial only after import sessions, never while browsing). One-time lifetime purchase to remove ads and unlock unlimited storage. Avoid subscriptions, users resent them here.

    솔직한 경고

    이 기회의 가장 큰 함정

    The biggest trap is data loss: one bad migration or missing backup toggle and your app becomes the next 1-star 'lost everything' review pile, and in this category trust is the whole product.
