Heritage Vault

Your collection, documented properly.

A catalogue for serious collectors. Items, photographs, valuations, insurance cover, provenance and estate planning — held on your own device, and ready to print the day someone actually needs it.

In TestFlight now · iPhone and iPad · iOS 18.5 or later

The Heritage Vault Collections screen, listing categories such as Art, Watches and Jewellery with item counts.

Thirteen kinds of collection.
Each with its own fields.

A watch needs a movement and a reference number. A book needs an edition and a binding. Heritage Vault asks the questions that belong to the thing in front of you, instead of one flat form for everything.

A value is only worth what its source says.

Every valuation records where it came from and when. The app will not call your own estimate an appraised value — the label follows the source, so a document generated from your collection can be handed to an insurer without quiet exaggeration.

Insurance

Record the insurer, policy number, covered amount and renewal date. When a valuation rises above the cover, the item is flagged as underinsured — on the item and in the insurance overview.

Provenance

Previous owners, periods and how each piece changed hands, kept as an ordered chain. Attach the receipt, the certificate or the auction result as a PDF or photograph.

Estate planning

Name who should receive each piece, with a relationship and any instruction that matters. The Estate Inventory Report gathers it into one document your executor can read.

Paper still matters when it counts.

Loss adjusters, executors and probate lawyers do not install apps. Heritage Vault prints documents built for them.

List of everything

One row per item with a total, column headers repeated on every page, and every page numbered. Search or filter first and the printout says so, so a partial stack can never pass as the whole collection.

One page per item

A single sheet for each piece — photograph, values, provenance, insurance, beneficiary. Anything that will not fit is summarised as a count, never dropped in silence.

Complete record

Everything on file for one item, over as many pages as it takes. Full valuation history, full provenance, every photograph. Nothing omitted.

Collections rarely stay in one currency.

Set a base currency for the collection and a currency per item. A watch bought at auction in Geneva stays in francs; the total still adds up, converted with European Central Bank reference rates, and the figure is dated and attributed wherever it appears.

When a rate is genuinely unavailable, the total says so and shows the amount separately. A number that admits what it could not convert is worth more than one that is quietly wrong.

What you own is nobody else's business.

A list of valuable objects and where they are kept is exactly the list you would least like to leak. Heritage Vault is built so there is nothing to leak.

No account

There is no sign-up, no password and no server holding your collection. The app opens straight into your own data.

Encrypted on device

Your collection is stored with AES-256-GCM. The key lives in the device keychain and never leaves it.

Sync is yours

iCloud sync is off until you turn it on, and copies to your own private iCloud database — not to us.

No tracking

No analytics, no advertising identifiers, no third-party SDKs watching what you catalogue.

At home on the device it runs on.

Light and dark appearance, following the system. Dynamic Type throughout, so the whole catalogue grows with your Text Size setting rather than staying stubbornly small — which matters when the person documenting an estate is not twenty-five.

iPhone and iPad, iOS 18.5 or later.
