Your data is stored nowhere else but on your phone. Nobody else will have access unless you decide to share it with them. Only you decide if you want to share your data with someone else. It enables you to request and receive so-called Verifiable Credentials from official sources, institutions, enterprises, or other organizations. Verifiable credentials are digital records that act as proof of a person's identity, qualifications, roles, achievements, or other attributes. Examples of credentials are for example formal identities, professional certifications or licenses, college or university degrees, academic transcripts, employment records, permits, medical records or prescriptions, credit reports, insurance policies, property deeds, bank statements, travel documents, immigration documents, background checks, drug test results, security clearances, etc. The data you receive is digitally signed by the issuer, allowing the party you share your data with to easily verify that the data is authentic and has not been tampered with. Creating trust in digital transactions. Built based on open W3C Verifiable Credentials standard it guarantees interoperability with other systems to receive and share data.

Before You Share checks screenshots and images for the private bits hiding in plain sight. Pick an image from Photos, Finder on Mac, or the iOS Share Sheet. Before You Share runs an on-device scan for emails, phone numbers, payment cards, IBANs, postal addresses, faces, QR codes, hidden image metadata, and more. Review every finding, ignore false positives, mark any area yourself, then share a clean PNG with selected details hidden and metadata stripped. โ 100% on-device. Detection runs on Apple's Vision framework. โ No accounts, no ads, no third-party analytics, no tracking. โ Your images are never uploaded. Optional Pro features unlock expanded checks, the iOS Share Sheet extension, advanced detections, and saved redaction defaults. Detection isn't perfect. Always review before sharing.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sphereon Wallet at none against Before You Share's 1. Before You Share's advantage is update cadence (every 2 days vs every 2 months) and device support (4 vs 1). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
