Share the file without sharing every private detail. Hide phone numbers in screenshots, redact sensitive text in PDFs, and cover selected areas in videos — with content processing on your device and no upload of your originals. FOR SCREENSHOTS, RECEIPTS & PHOTOS Use local text detection to find phone numbers and email addresses, then review the suggested areas. Search repeated text or add covers manually. Choose solid covers, mosaic or blur, and review detected faces before covering them. FOR PDF DOCUMENTS Prepare a copy of a contract, receipt or other document before sending it. Search sensitive text, check pages that still need attention, and add manual covers where needed. FOR VIDEO PRIVACY Review detected faces or place your own cover over a selected area. Tap to position the box, adjust its size and choose when it appears. Manual boxes stay in a fixed position; preview the full video to check that moving details stay covered. PICK UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF Save encrypted drafts for photos, PDFs and videos. For multiple images, apply shared detection rules, review each file, and pause or retry as needed. Organize originals and finished copies into groups, combine images into a long image, and share from the result preview.
