User Reviews

Users like the app’s censorship options and easy workflow, plus the ability to save censored images while preserving originals and using it for redacting sensitive info. However, recurring issues include crashes when saving, aggressive paywalls with per-item charges, and export/share limitations without paying. Some reviews also allege copying from another app and question its legitimacy. Overall, the core censoring features are viewed positively, but reliability and monetization concerns are repeatedly noted.

Pros

Multiple censor options (blur, mosaic, black out) to block information
Easy to use and straightforward interface for applying censorship
Allows saving the censored image while keeping the original photo in the camera roll
Useful for redacting sensitive information beyond faces (e.g., document numbers)

Cons

Frequent crashes or failures when saving/exporting to the camera roll
In-app purchases/charges for saving or sharing; perceived deceptive pricing and paywalls
Limited export/share functionality without paying (unable to download or share freely)
Perceived as a ripoff or copied app by some reviewers

Recent reviews

The Mosiac and blur feature could be stronger, or maybe have a slider that adjust the strength of said options

I like that the app offers several choices to block info. I learned you have to click the style you want, then drag your finger to make a box around what you want blurred. The small fee supports the developers, so I didn’t mind paying that. I’m writing this review because I got a new phone & didn’t just copy over all the apps. I needed this one soon after, and it took a bit to find it in the app store! I was relieved it’s still there.
