FAQ

Is redacting here safe for sensitive screenshots?

Yes, the image is processed entirely on your device in your browser. It is never uploaded, logged, or stored.

Can blurred or pixelated areas be reversed?

The download is a flattened image, so the original pixels in redacted areas are not recoverable from the exported file. Use stronger pixelation for text.

What's better for hiding text, blur or pixelate?

Pixelation at a large block size is safer for text. Light blurs can sometimes be partially reconstructed.
