Description

BLACKBOX is a clean, lightweight, offline-first security hub built for developers, creators, and anyone who values digital privacy. All data is encrypted with AES-256-GCM and stored on your device — nothing ever leaves without your explicit consent.

Core Modules:

- Secrets Manager: Store API keys, passwords, and tokens in categorized, encrypted vaults. Tap-to-reveal and one-tap copy.
- Encrypted Journal: Timestamped entries with category tags, all encrypted locally with your master PIN.
- 2FA / Authenticator: TOTP code generator with live countdown and manual secret entry. No cloud sync, no accounts needed.
- Privacy Tools: Permission audit, tracker URL cleaner, browser fingerprint viewer, and malicious URL scanner.
- Settings: Master PIN change, auto-lock timer, biometric unlock, panic mode with decoy calculator, screenshot blocking.

Security Features:

- AES-256-GCM encryption via Web Crypto API
- PBKDF2-SHA256 key derivation with 150,000 iterations
- FLAG_SECURE screenshot and screen recording blocking
- Biometric unlock (fingerprint / face) via Android BiometricPrompt
- Panic mode: calculator decoy triggered by PIN prefix
- Auto-lock on inactivity or app switch
- 100% offline — no network calls, no analytics, no tracking

BLACKBOX is free, open-source, and built with Capacitor for Android. No proprietary dependencies. No cloud. No compromises.

What’s new (2.0.7)

The lock screen now has a little character: it covers its eyes while you type your PIN, peeks when you stop, celebrates a correct PIN and winces at a wrong one, with a haptic tick on every key. Voice notes: the recording timer no longer drifts when the screen goes dark, a finished take can no longer be lost to a stray tap, and playback no longer holds decrypted audio in memory. Plus dark-mode contrast, Light theme, wallpaper switching, overlay dim and clipboard auto-clear fixes.
