FAQ
Is blur safe for highly sensitive data?
Use full redaction for truly sensitive data. Blur can be enough for casual privacy, but solid coverage is safer.
Can I edit several areas in one image?
Yes. You can add multiple areas, undo the last one or clear the full set.
Does this replace document redaction software?
It is useful for simple image workflows, but formal document redaction may require a more specialized process.
