Valet is a Swift library that simplifies securely storing data in the iOS, tvOS, watchOS, and macOS Keychain. It wraps the Keychain's complex APIs behind an easy-to-use interface with support for biometric access controls.
Use cases
- store sensitive data securely on iOS without learning Keychain APIs
- persist secrets in the macOS Keychain
- require Touch ID or Face ID to access stored data
- share keychain data between apps on Apple platforms
- store user tokens and passwords safely in a tvOS app
When to choose
- you need secure local storage on iOS, macOS, tvOS, or watchOS
- you want Keychain access with biometric protection without dealing with raw Keychain APIs
- you want a battle-tested library maintained by Square
When to avoid
- you need secure storage on non-Apple platforms
- you need a database or general-purpose storage rather than small secure key-value data
