Sharing screenshots is part of daily life, but they often contain data you don't want the world to see: real names, addresses, passwords, or faces of bystanders.
Why you must redact
- Doxing: Small details can reveal your location.
- Identity Theft: Never share credit card numbers or IDs.
- Professionalism: Blur internal company data before sharing work.
The Problem with "Blacking Out"
Using a black marker tool on your phone is sometimes risky. If you don't make it 100% opaque, hackers can sometimes reverse the contrast to read the text underneath. Blurring or Pixelating is often safer and looks cleaner.
How to Blur Securely (Client-Side)
Most online tools upload your sensitive image to a server to process it. We don't. Our Privacy Redactor runs entirely in your browser.
- Open the Privacy Redactor.
- Upload the screenshot.
- Click and Drag over the area you want to hide.
- Selected areas are instantly blurred/pixelated.
- Download the clean version.
Your original image never leaves your device.
