ShadowClip
Read full descriptionHide full description
You share screenshots with colleagues and paste them into AI tools every day. ShadowClip removes the personal data before you hit send. Email addresses in a complaint. Names and faces. API keys. They end up in screenshots constantly, and then in places they shouldn't — AI assistants, emails to colleagues, or texts to friends. ShadowClip autodetects sensitive information in images, and lets you review and adjust before sharing. WHAT IT DETECTS • Credentials: API keys and tokens in more than 20 formats • Financial: credit card numbers and IBANs, each checked against its own check digit, so a number that merely looks like a card isn't flagged • Identity: national ID numbers for 29 countries, each matched to its own format • Contact: email addresses, phone numbers, postal addresses • Network: IPv4, IPv6 and MAC addresses • Visual: faces, QR codes, barcodes • Names, organisations and locations • Dates of birth and handwritten signatures BUILT INTO YOUR WORKFLOW Pick a photo from your library and give ShadowClip a few seconds. Findings appear as a review list: accept, dismiss, or add your own. Then save the redacted copy back to Photos. You can also select words by hand, or draw a region over anything else you want hidden. Share Extension: from Photos, Safari, or any app with the system Share menu, choose ShadowClip. Redact and save without leaving what you're doing. BUILT FOR EVERY LANGUAGE Most redaction tools are built for English. ShadowClip's interface is available in 17 languages, and it checks text in 30 — including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Russian and Thai. National ID numbers are matched country by country, not with one generic pattern. Arabic and Hebrew get a fully right-to-left interface. Apple's text recognition cannot read Hebrew, Greek or Hindi. Rather than pass over it silently, ShadowClip marks that text on the image so you can see exactly what went unchecked — and numbers, email addresses and ID numbers inside it are still found. IRREVERSIBLE BY DESIGN Redactions are opaque fills composited into a new image. The original pixels are discarded, not covered: there is nothing underneath to recover. Location data and camera metadata are stripped when you save. PRIVACY BY DESIGN ShadowClip contains no networking code and makes no network requests. Your images are processed on your device and never leave it. No accounts, no cloud, no telemetry.

OBDDrive transforma os dados do seu veículo em informações úteis e fáceis de acompanhar. Conecte um adaptador OBD-II Bluetooth compatível ao veículo e acompanhe em tempo real diversos parâmetros disponibilizados pela central eletrônica (ECU). RECURSOS • Conexão com adaptadores OBD-II Bluetooth compatíveis • Monitoramento de dados do veículo em tempo real • Consumo instantâneo de combustível • Consumo médio • Temperatura do líquido de arrefecimento • Tensão do sistema elétrico/bateria, quando disponível • Leitura de códigos de diagnóstico (DTC) • Limpeza de códigos de falha compatíveis • Histórico de consumo • Reinicialização da média de consumo • Calibração de consumo baseada no abastecimento real • Alertas configuráveis de temperatura • Suporte a diferentes veículos e motores CONSUMO MAIS PRÓXIMO DA REALIDADE O OBDDrive permite calibrar os cálculos de consumo utilizando dados reais de abastecimento. Informe a distância percorrida e a quantidade abastecida para ajustar o cálculo ao comportamento do seu veículo. DIAGNÓSTICO OBD-II Consulte códigos de diagnóstico disponibilizados pelo veículo e acompanhe parâmetros importantes diretamente pelo iPhone. MONITORAMENTO DE TEMPERATURA Acompanhe a temperatura do líquido de arrefecimento e configure um limite para receber alertas quando a temperatura atingir níveis definidos por você. COMPATIBILIDADE É necessário possuir um adaptador OBD-II Bluetooth compatível. Os dados e recursos disponíveis dependem do veículo, da ECU, do protocolo OBD-II utilizado e do adaptador conectado. Nem todos os veículos disponibilizam todos os parâmetros. IMPORTANTE O OBDDrive é uma ferramenta auxiliar de monitoramento e diagnóstico. As informações apresentadas não substituem inspeção, diagnóstico ou manutenção realizados por um profissional qualificado. Não utilize o aplicativo de maneira que possa causar distração durante a condução. Respeite sempre as leis de trânsito e utilize o veículo com segurança.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: ShadowClip at none against OBD Drive's 1. ShadowClip also leads on device support (3 vs 1). OBD Drive's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 3 months). On price, ads and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
