A photo may expose faces, text, QR codes, barcodes, or other regions that should be hidden before sharing.

What this feature helps you do

  • Detect supported sensitive regions including faces, text, QR codes, and barcodes.
  • Add or adjust redaction regions manually.
  • Render blur, pixelation, or solid-color covers.
  • Strip metadata from the redacted JPEG output.

Where it fits in the workflow

  1. Choose a photo.
  2. Run detection or add regions manually.
  3. Review every marked region and adjust its bounds.
  4. Choose the redaction effect.
  5. Export and inspect the final copy before sharing.

What to check before export

  • Automatic detection and manual region editing
  • Blur
  • Pixelation
  • Solid cover

What to keep in mind

  • Automatic detection can miss or incorrectly mark content, so every region requires visual review.
  • The exported redacted copy uses JPEG output.
