About

Privacy Watermark

Features
Read full description

Sometimes you need to share a photo or a copy of a document without revealing every detail or letting it be reused for another purpose. Watermark helps you prepare a purpose-specific copy before you send it. Brush over sensitive details with a mosaic effect or cover them with a solid mask. Adjust the brush size, erase, and undo or redo each stroke until the image is ready to share. Add a clear note such as “For rental application only.” Place the watermark once or repeat it across the image, then adjust the text, size, color, opacity, rotation, position, and spacing with a live preview. Export a JPEG or PNG at the original image dimensions. Location, camera, EXIF, IPTC, and other source metadata are removed from the exported copy. Your original image is never changed. Watermark also remembers your work: • Recent edits are saved automatically • Keep frequently used originals in Favorites • Pick up where you left off after reopening the app • Start new edits with the watermark settings from your latest successful save or share • Save to Photos or share with Files, AirDrop, Messages, and more There’s no account, analytics, or cloud sync. Editing and storage stay on your device.
