Comments on ObscuraCam for Android

★★★★☆ Alpha Beta · Mar 1, 2020
Give app permission to access your photos and obscure faces on pictures and save. You can pixelate or redact face(s), or pixelate entire photo except the faces. Or block out any portion of the photo. Video mode needs improvement.
★★★★☆ AzGhillieGhost · Jul 16, 2018
Works on photos just as anticipated and actually is easier to use than expected. Haven't been able to get the video process to work yet, but I have yet to fully explore the programs capabilities. Overall review: can be very useful & easy to use right off the bat.
★☆☆☆☆ abdulilah alshareef · Feb 27, 2019
Most apps ask for access to your storage!!! This is not safe from IT Security viewpoint. Don't install apps if you don't need them, you expose your privacy to.... معظم التطبيقات تطلب منك السماح للوصول للصور والمقاطع الموجودة على جهازك. إذا لم تكن هناك حاجة ماسة لتطبيق ما، فلا تستخدمه، أنت تعرض جهازك وبياناتك للإختراق
★☆☆☆☆ hunter tompson · Aug 14, 2018
Does not Auto display picture makes you look for it and then when you try to open it it crashes waste of my time
★☆☆☆☆ A Google user · Feb 11, 2019
SUPER laggy and when it does work the video lasts literally 1 second
★☆☆☆☆ Siddique 96441 · Nov 4, 2019
Don't install this app,,, video objects does not blur, just want you time
★☆☆☆☆ Robert Rothenberg · Nov 8, 2019
It crashes. Tapping on screen to give perms does nothing. Manually assigning perms shows a gallery of photos, but it still crashes.

Description by Guardian Project: Apps You Can Trust Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
In a world of viral videos and facial recognition, ObscuraCam helps you share photos and videos while protecting the privacy of you and those you care about. With ObscuraCam you can blur and disguise faces in your photos and videos. Information that could identify you as the cameraperson is removed from the files for added security.

★ PRIVACY FOR YOUR PICTURES: ObscuraCam can be used as a camera to take photos, or to anonymize photos and videos you’ve already taken.
★ DISGUISE YOURSELF: Cover faces with pixelate, redact (blackout) or funny nose and glasses
★ AUTOMATIC FACE DETECTION: ObscuraCam automatically detects faces in both photos and videos, so you can quickly and easily anonymize a crowd or a long video.
★ MULTIPLE PRIVACY MODES: Faces can be pixelated, removed completely, or disguised with funny nose and glasses. You can also blur everything except a small portion of an image.
★ SHARE SECURELY: We remove all identifying data stored in photos including GPS location data and phone make & model so you can save the protected photo back to the Gallery, or share it directly to Facebook, Twitter or any other "Share" enabled app.
★ PROTECTS THE IDENTITY OF THE PHOTOGRAPHER: Smartphones attach information to every photo they take, including where it was taken and by what type of camera. ObscuraCam removes all of this information.
★ AWARD-WINNING: ObscuraCam was a Winner of the 2013 Knight News Challenge
