App got approved!

Thank you to this sub. Reading posts here helped a lot during development and App Review.

I’ve always felt apps like Notes or Keep become messy once you start storing important personal information in them. Things like IDs, insurance details, account info, documents, emergency contacts, etc. end up scattered everywhere.

So over the last few months I started building a small iOS app for myself focused specifically on organizing sensitive information in a more structured way.

Everything is stored on-device with encryption, supports Face ID/Touch ID, works offline, and lets you create custom fields and nested subfields instead of just long notes. I also added encrypted export/import backups and privacy overlay protection when switching apps.

The app recently got approved on the App Store !!!

Did your first iOS app get approved in the one go?

Just wanted to ask actual developers here that how often there apps get approved in first submission to App store by Apple?

I am building a minimal secure notes app because my notes apps became a digital junk drawer.

For years I tried using Apple Notes, Google Keep, Notion, and random docs to store important information like WiFi passwords, IDs, recovery codes, bank references, project notes, subscription details, device serial numbers, and all the tiny things you need “someday.”

The problem wasn’t storage. It was retrieval.

Everything eventually became a mess of folders, labels, pinned notes, screenshots, and half organized text dumps. Even when the data was technically “saved,” it never felt instantly accessible. I still found myself searching endlessly or rewriting the same information again and again.

So we built Fields.

The idea was simple: create a minimal personal data vault focused on quick recall instead of endless note taking. Something structured enough to stay organized, but lightweight enough to feel instantly usable.

Instead of giant documents and cluttered pages, Fields lets you create custom fields for the exact information you want to store. You can organize data cleanly, hide sensitive values, lock the app with Face ID or Touch ID, and keep everything encrypted on device with AES 256 encryption.

I also wanted it to feel handy. Open the app, find the info in seconds, close it. No workspace setup. No complicated hierarchy. No productivity system to maintain.

A lot of apps try to become your second brain.
Fields is designed to become your reliable pocket reference.

Still improving it every week, especially around security, UX, and backups. Would genuinely love feedback from people who also feel overwhelmed by modern note apps.

Fields - Personal Info Vault

Hi everyone,

We’ve built a minimal, privacy-focused personal data vault and are looking for beta testers for iOS.

Fields is designed to securely store personal information completely on-device with encryption. The app focuses on simplicity, privacy, and organization without accounts, ads, or cloud dependency by default.

Current features include:
• Encrypted on-device storage
• Face ID / Touch ID protection
• Custom fields and nested subfields for organizing data
• Secure vault-style UI for IDs, documents, notes, and sensitive info
• Export & import encrypted backups
• Privacy overlay when switching apps
• Minimal and clean design
• Offline-first experience

We’re especially looking for feedback on:
• Security & privacy behavior
• Face ID / Touch ID reliability
• Export/import flow
• App lock & overlay behavior while multitasking
• UI/UX consistency
• Performance and stability with lots of data

Please try adding random data, long notes, many fields/subfields, and stress test the app however you can.

If you’re interested in testing or giving feedback, feel free to comment or DM. Your feedback would really help us improve the app before launch.
