Common questions

About local photo redaction

Are my photos uploaded?

No. The browser opens, edits, and exports your photos on this device. The tool does not send image content, file names, thumbnails, or canvas data to HandyPebble.

Can Restore remove a Secure Cover?

No. Secure Cover regions are rendered after ordinary effects. Restore can correct Mosaic or Blur, but it cannot expose pixels beneath a Secure Cover.

Does the downloaded image keep photo location metadata?

The download is newly rendered from visible canvas pixels. It does not copy the source photo file or its EXIF and GPS blocks into the new image.

Will the download keep the original dimensions?

Yes. Editing uses a smaller working preview when needed, but every download is rendered again at the original pixel width and height.

Can I blur part of an image or censor a screenshot?

Yes. Use Brush, Rectangle, or Ellipse with Blur or Mosaic. For a screenshot containing private text, use Secure Cover instead.
