TagShot is a camera app that saves photos and videos straight into the folder you choose at the moment you capture them. Start shooting directly from a category card. Pick a folder first, then shoot. TagShot automatically sorts signs, receipts, work records, fitness progress, family photos, ideas, places, and reference images from the start. You can import existing photos, keep notes, date, time, and location, move photos between folders, customize folder names and colors, capture quickly from the Lock Screen widget, and protect your gallery with Gallery Lock. Use up to 3 folders for free. TagShot Lifetime unlocks folder limits, import, moving, custom colors, and Gallery Lock. Try the optional hands-on tutorial and restart it anytime from Settings.

Read full description

HideCut is a privacy editor made for chat screenshots. Import screenshots from your photo library or clipboard, hide the parts you do not want to share, then save or send a cleaner image. Main Features - Detect chat message areas to reduce manual selection - Tap or drag to select the conversation content you want to edit - Redact with pixelate, blur, solid color, or mosaic styles - Crop selected messages into a focused share image - Stitch multiple continuous chat screenshots into one long screenshot - Create collage-style exports with background, spacing, separators, and device frames - Remove EXIF and location metadata when exporting images Long Screenshots and Collages When a conversation is split across multiple screenshots, HideCut helps turn them into one more readable long image. You can hide sensitive details first, then stitch and arrange the screenshots for sharing. Privacy by Design HideCut does not require an account and does not upload your chat screenshots, recognition results, crop areas, redaction edits, collage layouts, or exported images to HideCut servers. Recognition, privacy scanning, redaction, cropping, stitching, and exporting happen on your device. Useful For - Hiding names, addresses, amounts, and other sensitive details before sharing chats - Cropping key parts of a conversation into a clean image - Turning multiple chat screenshots into a long screenshot or collage - Checking and covering private details before posting screenshots online Automatic detection and stitching can be affected by screenshot clarity, fonts, backgrounds, languages, and overlapping scroll areas. Please review your image before sharing and manually adjust selected areas when needed.
