Clanda
Clanda keeps the people in your life encrypted on your phone, behind a PIN only you know. A second PIN opens a hidden vault.
Free for 7 days. Android.
How it works
Six digits, set the first time you open Clanda. It unlocks the app, and the encryption key stays in your phone's secure keystore.
Type them in, or import from your phone's address book in a few taps. Each contact is stored only on this device, encrypted with AES-256.
Leave the app and Clanda locks, right away or after up to 5 minutes, as you choose. Too many wrong PINs and it makes the next guess wait.
Inside the app
Scroll for more screens.
The vault
Set a second PIN and it opens a separate set of hidden contacts. Same lock screen, a different number.
Nothing on the main screens shows that hidden contacts exist. It's strong privacy, not magic: read what the vault can and can't promise below.
What it does
Every contact is encrypted and stored only on this phone. The PIN is kept as a salted hash, never in readable form.
Pick how long Clanda waits after you leave, from immediately to 5 minutes. Or tap Lock in the tab bar.
Names, several numbers and emails, address, company, job title, birthday and notes, with a photo from your camera or gallery.
Instant search, starred favorites, and first-last or last-first name order. One tap to call, message or email.
Back up everything to a file and restore it on a new phone. Export a CSV spreadsheet whenever you like.
Warm paper by day, navy by night. Follows your phone's setting, or choose one in Settings.
Who it's for
People who trust you with their details, kept apart from your phone's address book.
The people closest to you, with their notes, birthdays and photos sealed on your phone.
A few contacts that are just for you, in a vault that opens with a PIN of their own.
Your whole address book, private. Import it once and keep it here.

Private by design
There is no Clanda account and no Clanda server. AnchorKite never receives your contacts, can't see them, and can't recover them.
The only time Clanda talks to a server is when you start a trial or make a purchase: Google Play and our purchase provider, RevenueCat, confirm it using an anonymous ID. Nothing else leaves the phone unless you export a file yourself, and exported files are not encrypted. Read the Clanda privacy policy for the details.
Questions
Not today. Clanda is on Google Play for Android phones.
AnchorKite cannot recover it. Nothing is held on our side, so a forgotten PIN means the contacts it protects are gone. Keep a backup somewhere safe, and choose a PIN you will remember.
No. Clanda asks for read-only access when you tap Import and copies the contacts you pick into its own encrypted storage. It never changes your phone's address book, so a contact you want kept private still needs deleting from there yourself.
Back up to a file from Settings, move the file across, and restore it in Clanda on the new phone. There is no cloud copy, so the backup file is the only way across. Backup files are not encrypted, so keep yours somewhere you trust.
Only if you take the backup with the vault open. A backup taken with your main PIN contains your everyday contacts and nothing from the vault.
Your main PIN cannot open it, and hidden contacts have their own encryption key made from the second PIN. No app can promise more than that. A 6-digit PIN is a million possible guesses for someone who has already pulled the data and the key off your phone, so treat the vault as strong privacy, not as a guarantee.
Your contacts, search, the PIN lock and backups all run on the phone. Starting a trial or making a purchase needs a connection, because Google Play confirms it.
No. Clanda has a 7-day free trial on the monthly and yearly plans, then needs a paid plan. That pays for the app without ads, accounts or selling data. Cancel the trial in Google Play before it ends and you are not charged.
Free for 7 days, then $4.99 a month, $29.99 a year, or $49.99 once. For Android phones.
