About

MaskPic

Features

Share a screenshot or photo without sharing the private details inside it. MaskPic helps you cover faces, names, profile pictures, phone numbers, addresses and other sensitive text before you send or post an image. Start with a photo from your library, paste an image, or send one to MaskPic from the share sheet. On-device detection suggests areas to hide. Review each suggestion, add or erase masks, and adjust their size and position before exporting. Make the result look right for the image: • Blur or pixelate a selected area. • Use a solid cover, emoji or avatar for faces and profile pictures. • Choose the mask shape and adjust its strength. • Process several images in one batch, then save or share them. • Keep recent edits in your gallery. Image detection and editing happen on your iPhone. You can start for free with a daily watermarked export. MaskPic Pro is a one-time in-app purchase for exports without the MaskPic watermark and more room for batch work. No subscription is required. Whether it is a chat screenshot, a group photo or a work image, check the details, apply your masks and share with more control.
