Arkiva Dokumente

What Arkiva is

Arkiva keeps a family's papers in one private place on the iPhone: ID cards and passports, bills, bank letters, contracts, medical records, school certificates. Scan them with the camera, or add them from Photos and Files, and find any of them later by any word in them. It reads documents in Albanian, English, Italian, French, German and other Latin-script languages, and its search understands Albanian (with or without ë and ç). The app speaks Albanian, English, Italian, German, French and Greek, starting in your phone's language.

• Encrypted on the phone. Every document is encrypted (AES-256-GCM) before it is saved. The key lives in the iPhone's Secure Enclave and opens only with Face ID or the device passcode.
• Read on the phone. Text is recognised on the device with Apple's text recognition. Search ignores ë and ç, understands Albanian word endings and forgives small typos.
• Organised. Multi-page documents, family members tagged automatically, categories, and a trash that keeps deleted documents for 30 days.
• Recoverable. A 24-word recovery phrase on paper, and an encrypted backup file you can restore on a new phone.
• For the whole family. Family phones join by scanning a QR code on a phone that is already in the family.
• Nothing collected. No accounts, no servers, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. The developer never receives your documents.
• Free to start, one payment for more. Every family archive holds 20 documents for free, with every feature. One in-app purchase, with no subscription, unlocks unlimited documents for the whole family archive, on every phone that syncs it through iCloud, and works with Family Sharing. Everything already saved always stays yours. Families who used Arkiva before version 1.2.0 keep unlimited documents at no cost.
