MaskerAid

If you’re out and about taking pictures of what’s happening around you, it’s nice to get permission before posting people’s faces even though they’re in public. Well, that’s also not always possible, so this helps you protect their privacy by obscuring their faces with emojis quickly and easily! It’s simple and quick to add more emoji, move existing emoji around, resize emoji, and export the image in a snap! This app also strips the metadata for the photo, so if privacy is paramount for you — and it should be — this app makes protecting your privacy and that if others in your photos a snap!

I’ve struggled for a long time to do the simple thing of obscuring faces of people in my photos, when I use those pics in places where those faces shouldn’t be shown - a perfect example is uploading group pics to a dating app, where you want to make it clear which one is you! I’ve tried all kinds of apps that blur, or use stickers, or whatever, and they all require a *lot* of work to get a decent result. They’re also usually littered with ads and make me feel like I’m probably giving them way more data than I want to. This app is perfect. It’s gorgeously designed, and you can really see and feel the care and craftsmanship that went into it. I already purchased the in-app purchase for all emoji - it’s cheap, all emoji will be handy, and man do I want to support and encourage development like this!

I love to be able to share photos of my student’s work on my social media when I’m really proud of an assignment. Even with their permission (and the permission of their parents) I still feel a little icky sharing their faces. This will solve that problem! I’ve done a few test runs and the app is extremely intuitive. Most of the time I don’t even need to adjust the emoji, the app covers the faces for me. Highly recommended for parents/teachers!
