Description
Redact screenshots, photos, and PDFs before sharing. Drag to add blackout, mosaic, or blur masks. Find possible redactions for emails, IPv4 addresses, or custom text, then review and apply them yourself. Blackout is recommended for sensitive data; blur and mosaic may be reversible. Processing stays on your Mac. PDF export rasterizes every page. Free, with optional tips only. Requires macOS 14+.
