EchoVaults is an offline-first, encrypted legacy vault that stores your final wishes, messages, and important information — accessible only in case of death, disappearance, or emergency. It doesn’t rely on servers, cloud, or biometrics. It runs 100% on-device, with zero internet exposure, and uses AES-256-GCM with PBKDF2 encryption. Once set up, no account is needed, and it operates without any background activity or data collection.

Very cool!

I'm like the idea but the site does not let me know how it works after I die? How does the other person gets access to the vault?

Also curious about this. There seems to be a master password and a bunch of questions. Presumably (I looked around) one transfers these.

Now, there have been cases of seniors being conned into signing away power of attorney. If this is detected, how can the owner change the authorization?

And if used by seniors (I am one, OK) how can they remember the password/questions other than a password manager app (which requires a password) or printing them out and saving in a lockbox? And then there’s access to the key …

Anyway, granting access seems to be the entire point of this, and I didn’t see it addressed “job one” on a quick run through the website. Then again, I’m a senior …

Have you tried a no-code option?
