Photo Redactor: Blur & Hide

Protect private information in photos and screenshots before you share them.

Photo Redactor: Blur & Hide is a focused image redaction tool for covering sensitive details with blur, pixelation, or a solid block. Select an image, mark the areas you want to hide, adjust the effect, and save a new redacted copy.

Core image editing is processed on your device, so your photo or screenshot does not need to be uploaded to a server just to redact it.

REDACT PHOTOS AND SCREENSHOTS

Hide information that should not be visible before posting, messaging, emailing, or uploading an image.

Use Photo Redactor to cover details such as:
• Phone numbers
• Email addresses
• Names and usernames
• Home or delivery addresses
• Order and account details
• Payment information
• Chat messages
• Faces or identifying details
• License plates
• QR codes
• Any other private area visible in an image

BLUR SENSITIVE INFORMATION

Apply a blur effect to selected parts of a photo or screenshot. Adjust the strength to control how strongly the selected area is obscured.

PIXELATE PRIVATE DETAILS

Use pixelation when you want a clear visual indication that part of the image has been hidden. Increase or decrease the effect strength before saving your redacted copy.

SOLID REDACTION BLOCKS

For information that should be completely covered, place a solid block over the selected area. This is useful for text, numbers, account details, addresses, IDs, and other information you do not want visible.

PRECISE MANUAL REDACTION

Draw directly over the area you want to protect. Move and resize the selection to position the redaction where you need it.

The editor includes:
• Blur
• Pixelate
• Solid cover
• Adjustable effect strength
• Move and resize controls
• Undo and redo
• Multiple redacted areas

SAVE A FLATTENED COPY

When you finish editing, the app creates a new image with the redactions permanently applied to the exported pixels.

The original image stays unchanged, while the new copy is ready to open, save, or share.

This makes Photo Redactor useful when preparing:
• Screenshots for social media
• Receipts and order confirmations
• Chat screenshots
• Photos containing private details
• Documents captured as images
• Support or bug-report screenshots
• Marketplace listing photos
• Images shared by email or messaging apps

PRIVACY-FOCUSED IMAGE EDITING

Your editing happens locally on your Android device. The app is designed for quick privacy edits without requiring your image to be sent to an online redaction service.

Use the Android system image picker to choose a photo or screenshot, redact only what you need, and export a separate safe copy.

1. Select a photo or screenshot.
2. Mark the information you want to hide.
3. Choose blur, pixelate, or solid redaction.

5. Save the flattened redacted copy.

Photo Redactor: Blur & Hide is built for one job: helping you remove visible private information from images before they leave your device.
