## Description

Auto Redact is a document scanner that protects your privacy by default. Scan a letter with your camera, import a photo, or open a PDF from Files — personal data is found and blacked out automatically, entirely on your device.

Share the redacted version anywhere with a clear conscience: paste it into ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini to get help with a contract, send it to your landlord, your lawyer, or a support hotline — without handing over your identity.

WHAT GETS DETECTED AUTOMATICALLY
• Names and addresses
• IBANs, account and credit card numbers
• Phone numbers and email addresses
• Dates of birth, social security and tax IDs
• Reference numbers, license plates and more

YOU HAVE THE FINAL SAY
• Tap any black bar to reveal it — deadlines and amounts often need to stay
• Tap any word to black it out yourself, or draw a box anywhere on the image
• Pinch to zoom for precise control on dense documents
• Toggle whole categories (all names, all dates) with one tap

SCAN ANYTHING
• Camera scanning with automatic edge detection and de-skew
• Multi-page documents and PDFs (rendered on-device, page by page)
• Import from Photos or the Files app
• Paste plain text to redact it before sending

EXPORT SAFELY
• Share the redacted image, PDF, or text — only the redacted version ever leaves your phone
• One-tap handoff to ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, email or any app
• Redacted documents saved in an encrypted library (AES-256, Face ID / PIN lock)

PRIVACY IS THE ARCHITECTURE, NOT A SETTING
Text recognition runs on your device. Redaction happens before anything is shared. There is no account, no cloud, no analytics, no tracking — we couldn't read your documents if we wanted to. The optional "Ask AI" feature sends redacted text only, using your own API key.

Try the built-in sample letter to see the whole flow in 60 seconds.
