- 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
