RedactWorks: Redact PDF & Docs

Redact PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint files, scans and photos of documents — and get proof that the redaction actually worked.

RedactWorks finds personal and sensitive information in your document, highlights every item for you to approve, then permanently blacks it out. The text under every black box is removed, not painted over, and the finished file is re-scanned to verify nothing you approved is still there. No other redaction app on Android does that.

WHAT IT REDACTS
• Names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses
• Social Security numbers, dates of birth, driver's license and passport numbers
• Bank account, credit card and routing numbers
• Medical record numbers, diagnoses and health details
• Student IDs, employee IDs, case and claim numbers
• Hidden data too: metadata, comments, annotations and embedded content are stripped

HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick a file — PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, an image or a photo of a document. Scanned pages are read with OCR.
2. Review the findings. Every item is highlighted in yellow so you can see exactly what will be removed. Approve, skip, or tell the AI what to change in plain language.
3. Approve, and RedactWorks applies permanent black-box redaction and removes the underlying text.
4. The redacted file is re-extracted and re-scanned. If anything you approved is still present, your download is held until you've seen it.
5. Download the redacted PDF or share it straight from your phone.

WHY PEOPLE USE IT
• Blacking out personal information before sharing a document online or by email
• Redacting a lease, contract, bank statement, pay stub or medical record before sending it
• Public-records, FOIA and open-records responses
• HR, legal, insurance and claims paperwork
• Court filings and discovery documents
• Removing sensitive data from screenshots and scanned forms

PRIVACY
• You approve every redaction — nothing is removed without you seeing it
• Your documents are never used to train AI
• Delete your files from our servers whenever you want, and the deletion is verified
• Redacted files are yours to keep and re-download
