Aadhaar Number UID Safe Masker

Mask your Aadhaar in seconds. Pick an e-Aadhaar PDF or a photo of your card, and the app finds every Aadhaar (12-digit) and VID (16-digit) number and hides all but the last 4 digits — the same masked format UIDAI itself offers. Check the preview, then save or share the masked copy.

WHAT IT DOES
• Masks every occurrence. An e-Aadhaar letter prints your number two or three times, and each one is covered.
• Opens password-protected e-Aadhaar PDFs. Type the password (first 4 letters of your name in capitals + birth year) once; it is used to open the file and is not stored.
• Masks every page of a multi-page PDF (up to 30 pages) and exports a multi-page masked PDF.
• Photos too: take a photo or pick one from your gallery, then crop and rotate before masking.
• Optional PAN masking (Settings › Masking) for forms that carry both numbers.
• Edit the masks yourself: draw, move, resize or remove a mask, with undo and redo.
• Mask style: "XXXX" text or a solid black box. Optional footer on shared files.
• Share as an image or a PDF, or straight to WhatsApp in one tap. Save with the system file picker.
• My masked files: recent masked copies stay in the app for 90 days, and you can turn this off or delete them at any time.

YOUR DOCUMENT STAYS ON THIS PHONE
• Text is read on the device with an offline recognition model, so masking works without internet and the app does not upload your document.
• The masked copy is a flattened image: the hidden digits are not stored in the file.
• The original file is not changed.
• The app asks only for the camera permission, and only when you choose to take a photo. No storage permission.
• This free app shows one ad on the home screen (Google AdMob), never while your document is open. Where the law requires it, you are asked for consent first.

BUILT FOR TODAY'S PHONES
• Material 3 design with light and dark themes; layouts for tablets and foldables.
• English, हिन्दी and मराठी.
• Works on Android 8.0 and newer, including Android 16.

WHEN A MASKED AADHAAR HELPS
Hotel check-in, SIM verification, rental agreements, job applications, KYC forms: many organisations accept a masked Aadhaar for identity checks. The organisation you share it with decides what it needs.
