## Description
Redactly — Blur, Redact & Hide Sensitive Info in Photos & Screenshots
Share photos and screenshots without sharing your secrets. Redactly is a fast, private way to blur faces, black out text, and hide personal information in any image — right on your phone. No accounts. No photo uploads. Your images never leave your device.
Whether you're posting a receipt online, sharing a chat screenshot, uploading a travel pic, or sending a document — Redactly lets you cover sensitive bits in seconds.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
★ WHY REDACTLY?
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
✓ WORKS OFFLINE — Redaction happens on your device. No photo uploads.
✓ AUTO-DETECT TEXT — Tap once to find text in your image; tap again to hide it.
✓ MANUAL BLACK BARS — Draw precise redaction bars over anything you want gone.
✓ MULTIPLE STYLES — Solid black, blur, pixelate, or mosaic. Pick what fits.
✓ CLEAN, FAST UI — No clutter. No learning curve. Open, redact, share.
✓ NO WATERMARK — Your image, your way.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
★ WHAT YOU CAN REDACT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
- Names, addresses, phone numbers
- Account details and payment info
- Email addresses and usernames
- Faces and license plates

- Any sensitive text or image detail
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
★ HOW IT WORKS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
1. Open a photo from your gallery or import a screenshot.
2. Let Redactly auto-detect text, or draw a black bar yourself.
3. Choose your style — solid, blur, pixelate, or mosaic.
4. Save a flattened copy. Share it anywhere.
When you save, the redaction is baked into the image — no edit history, no layers to peel back.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
★ BUILT FOR PRIVACY

Many blur and censor apps send your photos to the cloud. Redactly doesn't. Your image never leaves your phone. No account. No email. No ads. No trackers.
If privacy matters to you, Redactly is built the way you'd build it yourself.
