## What is Text Redact?

Text Redact — a simple and reliable tool to protect personal data on images and video.

Redact text on screenshots, documents and photos before sharing. The app automatically recognizes text (OCR) — just tap a word and it will be hidden. Add a watermark to your photos and video to keep your work signed.

• 9 editing tools: fill, blur, pixelate, highlight, underline, strikethrough, draw, eraser and watermark
• Watermark of any kind: text, a logo from your library, a symbol or an emoji
• Place it with your fingers — drag, rotate, resize — and adjust color, opacity and angle
• Tile the watermark across the whole frame: staggered, grid or concentric, with adjustable spacing
• Video: the watermark covers the entire clip and exports in high quality
• Customize color, opacity and thickness for each tool
• Undo and redo actions
• Full-quality export: PNG for photos (lossless), MOV for video
• Save to Photos or share via any app
• Light and dark theme support
