100% on‑device redaction

Some things should
stay hidden.

Censorly permanently destroys sensitive pixels in your photos and PDFs before you share them — not just covers them up. Everything happens on your device.

Redaction that actually means it.

Six things Censorly does differently from a black box drawn in your Photos app.

01 / PIXELS

Pixels permanently destroyed

Redactions are irreversible. The area is overwritten at the pixel level, not covered with a box that can be removed later.

02 / OFFLINE

100% offline

Everything happens on your device. Censorly never needs an internet connection — your documents never leave your hands.

03 / FACES

Facial recognition

Censorly finds and permanently removes faces from your documents automatically, so you don't have to hunt for every one by hand.

04 / RELIABILITY

Human error free

Popular redaction methods fail silently — boxes that can be dragged away, text that was never truly erased. Censorly removes that risk.

05 / METADATA

Metadata removal

Hidden metadata in images and PDFs can expose location, device, and timestamps. Censorly strips it before you save the file.

06 / PRECISION

Zoom and scroll

Zoom into dense documents and scroll freely, so small print and tucked-away details don't slip past your redactions.

The usual way
  • Black rectangles dropped on top of an image
  • Underlying pixels and text remain in the file
  • Anyone can remove the overlay in seconds
  • Metadata still attached to the export
The Censorly way
  • Pixels overwritten at the source
  • Nothing recoverable underneath
  • No internet connection involved, ever
  • Metadata stripped automatically

Two ways in. One result.

Bank statements, contracts, tax forms, screenshots, or a quick photo of an ID — Censorly handles both image and PDF sources.

PHOTO MODE

Photo

JPG, PNG, screenshots, or a photo taken of a physical document — import it and start redacting in seconds.

PDF MODE

PDF

Bank statements, contracts, and tax forms come in as PDFs from Files, Mail, or any other app — Censorly opens them directly.

Redact correctly. Then share.

Free to try. No account required. No data ever leaves your device.
