Instructions

There are two parts to At Your Fingertips: the app and the extension. The app is the icon in your iPhone, like all your other apps. At Your Fingertips looks like a safe lock. The extension is the icon right under the texting window that also looks like a safe lock. The extension is exactly that, an extension of the app so you can quickly add content to your text messages right at the texting window. After you install the app, go to the texting window. You’ll see icons below the texting window where you see your photos icon. Scroll right to find the At Your Fingertips lock icon. If you press down on the At Your Fingertips icon, you can move it left so no scrolling is required to use.  

You can ONLY enter your content via the app and not the extension. Once you enter photos, files, GIFs, stickers and bookmarks THROUGH the app they will show up in the extension and be available for quick and easy use while texting.

PHOTOS

Photos are saved within the app locally, on your phone, THEY ARE NOT ONLINE OR ON A SERVER, for your security. They only exist in the app. If you delete the app the photos in the app will be deleted, so keep copies somewhere safe and secure. It will not delete the photos from wherever you loaded the images from. The app is a vault and COPIES are what are stored in the vault.

• By pressing the three dots in the upper right corner you can lock the main folder with a four-digit code.
• You can have separate locks for sub-folders, and you can give them the same or different locking codes.

• The codes can be changed or turned off at any time.  
• Your photos will not be visible if you have the locks on in either the app or the extension and you’ll be prompted to enter the lock code to see your images.  
• Every time you exit the app or messaging window the lock code will be required. This protects anyone who has access to your phone from seeing your private images, files, bookmarks, GIFs or stickers.
• You can load your photos/images from either your photo album or files. You may only load 5 images at a time, then repeat to load more images.

STICKERS

• Click on sticker folder and it shows you all the stickers you have. Stickers come in a small and large version. Stickers are meant to go over photos or text. If the photo is a very wide shot where the person is smaller in the photo, you’ll need to use the smaller version of the sticker. If the photo is a close-up of the person (waist up) then you’ll need the larger version of the sticker. Stickers can be enlarged but there is a limit to how much you can enlarge them. They cannot be reduced in size.
• You can buy additional stickers by pushing the buy button.
• The three dots in the upper right corner allows you to create a lock for your sticker folder. Locking will make them invisible on your phone until the four-digit code you created is input.

GIFS

EXTENSION Instructions

The app extension is right below the texting window and looks like a safe lock. By pressing down on the lock icon for 4 seconds, it will allow you to reposition the icon closer to the first few apps so it’s always there without having to scroll to the right. The first time you use the app extension, you’ll have to enter your username and password. If you’ve setup your folders in the App with the locks on, you’ll have to enter your four-digit lock codes to have access to the folders you have locks on. This can be handy for images, files, bookmarks, stickers or GIFs you want to keep private and not visible to people who have access to your phone. There are two ways to see your content in the extension. (1) You can scroll up or down by using your finger as normal or (2) pull up on the line above the title to any folder and it will show your content full screen. You can touch any item when full screen and it will go into your text window.
