Naqi vs JunkBlock
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Naqi
Read full descriptionHide full description
Filter videos on your device. Nothing is uploaded, ever. Naqi removes music from a video and censors the faces you choose, running every model directly on your iPhone, iPad or Mac. There is no account, no server and no network request — the app ships with everything it needs and works in Airplane Mode from the moment you install it. Remove music, keep speech An on-device separation model pulls the soundtrack out and leaves dialogue behind, so lectures, documentaries and shows stay watchable. Censor faces and flagged scenes Choose whose faces to cover — women or men — and Naqi tracks them through the video and blurs them. Whole scenes it flags as inappropriate are covered entirely. A strictness control sets how cautious that judgement is. Your original is never changed Naqi only ever reads the file you picked. The filtered version is saved as a new video; the original stays exactly where it was, byte for byte. Genuinely private No data collection. No analytics. No third-party SDKs. No account. The app contains no networking code, so there is nothing to trust us about — put the device in Airplane Mode and it works the same. Built for long videos A feature-length film takes a while, and iOS will suspend an app you switch away from. Naqi checkpoints as it goes: leave, come back, and it picks up where it stopped instead of starting over. Works with MP4, MOV and M4V. iPhone, iPad and Mac. What it is not Naqi uses machine learning and machine learning is not perfect. A face that is never shown clearly can be missed. High strictness deliberately over-censors — it is built to err toward covering too much rather than too little. Long videos take minutes, not seconds. Naqi is a tool for filtering your own media for yourself and your family. Naqi means pure in Arabic.

Keep the private bits private—without fiddling with masks frame by frame. JunkBlock automatically places a black modesty bar over the primary person in your photos and videos. It tracks movement on your iPhone, so your camera frames never need to leave your device. TAKE THE SHOT. KEEP IT COVERED. • Take censored photos • Record clean Instant censored video as the action happens • Generate a separate Precision version with enhanced frame-by-frame tracking • Import an existing video for private on-device Precision processing • Review captures in a private, on-device library • Share only when you choose • No accounts, ads, analytics, or cloud uploads PRIVATE BY DESIGN Camera frames, body-pose results, and audio are processed entirely on your iPhone. JunkBlock never uploads them to a server or uses them for advertising. The app does not browse your Photos library. For Precision processing, JunkBlock keeps a protected source in app-private, backup-excluded storage. It cannot be viewed, shared, or exported by the app. The source is deleted after Precision succeeds or when you remove its Instant video. If processing is canceled or fails, it stays protected on your device so you can retry. EVERYTHING INCLUDED Your App Store purchase includes clean video, video import, camera zoom, and Precision Tracking. There are no in-app purchases or subscriptions. Pose detection can miss in difficult lighting, framing, motion, or occlusion. Always review a capture before sharing.
