## What is KaoKeshi?

Hide faces and license plates before posting photos online.

KaoKeshi is a privacy-focused photo redaction app. Choose a photo, let on-device detection find faces and license plates, then apply mosaic, blur, or emoji styles in just a few taps.

FEATURES
- Auto-detect faces and apply mosaic or blur
- Auto-detect and hide license plates
- Whitelist family or friends you do not want to hide
- Manually add or adjust missed areas
- Tune redaction style and intensity
- Open images from the share sheet or Files and edit right away

GREAT FOR
- Posting family photos with more privacy
- Hiding strangers in travel or event photos
- Redacting car plates in street or parking photos
- Preparing safer photos for blogs, listings, and social media

PRIVACY
All processing happens on your device. Your photos are never uploaded to a server.

PRICING
KaoKeshi is free with no save limit. Face redaction, license plate hiding, saving, and batch processing are not locked behind a paywall.

If you like the app, optional supporter purchases are available in the app to help ongoing development. Supporting does not unlock extra features; everyone gets the same tools.
