Free photo privacy tool · Local by design
Strip photo location and camera metadata, then blur, pixelate or cover faces, license plates, addresses and sensitive text. Share Safe creates a new privacy-edited copy in your browser.
No upload required. Your photo stays on your device.
Two layers of photo privacy
Deleting EXIF metadata does not change the picture itself. A safer publishing copy needs both a metadata check and a careful visual review.
A photo file may contain GPS coordinates, capture date and time, camera or phone model, orientation and editing-software details. Share Safe re-encodes the saved copy without carrying over the original private metadata.
Faces, street signs, house numbers, badges, documents, screens, reflections and vehicle plates remain visible after metadata removal. Add a separate privacy area over every detail you decide not to share.
Face blur, plate blur and image redaction
Every privacy area can be moved, resized and rotated independently, with its own blur amount, pixel size or solid-cover color.
Choose the right concealment
The least distracting effect is not always the safest. Match the method to the consequence of someone recognizing the hidden detail.
Useful when you want to reduce recognition while preserving the surrounding look. A weak blur can still leave shapes, faces or text identifiable.
Use for: lower-risk visual obscuringCreates an obvious privacy effect, but small blocks may still reveal patterns. Increase the block size and inspect the final image carefully.
Use for: clear anonymization cuesCompletely obscures the selected pixels in the newly saved image. Prefer an opaque cover for passwords, account numbers, addresses and ID details.
Use for: highly sensitive informationImportant: save a new flattened JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP or TIFF copy and inspect it instead of taking a screenshot of an editable overlay. Keep the untouched original private.
Five-step Share Safe workflow
Start with one image and make every privacy decision before you publish it elsewhere.
Assistance, not a guarantee
Start Scan can check supported metadata, detectable faces, English text and a decodable code. It may miss small, angled, obscured or unsupported details, so the final decision stays with you.
Watermarks and AI training protection
Share Safe can add a visible text or logo watermark in signature, protective or repeated styles. This can show ownership or discourage casual reuse, but a visible watermark may be cropped or edited and cannot control what happens after publication.
Included: visible watermarks. Adjust position, size, opacity, rotation and color, and save reusable styles in the current browser.
Not included: invisible watermarking. Share Safe does not embed an invisible ownership or tracking signal.
Not included: Glaze or Nightshade-style protection. It does not create adversarial cloaks or poison data used for AI training.
No anti-scraping guarantee. An edited image cannot block bots, downloads, screenshots, cropping or a platform’s later use by itself.
Questions and answers
Open the image in Share Safe, review the visual content and continue to Secure & save. The newly encoded copy does not carry over the original location, device and capture metadata.
Yes. Share Safe creates a new copy without the original GPS metadata. Apple also lets you remove or exclude location information in Photos.
Add a privacy area over the face, choose blur or pixelation and adjust its position, size, rotation and strength. Face scanning can assist but does not replace manual review.
No. Start Scan can help find detectable faces, but it can miss details and does not automatically approve or fully anonymize an image.
Add one privacy area per detail, then choose blur, pixelation or solid cover. License-plate detection is not automatic. Inspect the final saved image at full size.
For passwords, account numbers, addresses, ID details and similar secrets, use an opaque solid-color cover. Light blur and small pixel blocks can leave information recognizable.
No. Metadata removal does not hide visible faces, signs, landmarks, reflections, badges, screens or documents. Context can also identify a person or place.
No. Your selected image is processed locally on your device. GeckoShareSafe does not offer cloud photo storage or an image-upload service.
After the core app has been cached, non-AI editing can work offline. Local AI features need their model downloaded once; after it is cached they can work offline too.
No. It supports visible watermarks, but not invisible watermarking, bot blocking, Glaze-style cloaking or Nightshade-style poisoning.
