Scrub: On-Device Redaction

Scrub finds and removes personal information from your photos and PDFs, entirely on your iPhone, so you can safely share files with cloud AI tools, support agents, or anyone else. Nothing ever leaves your device. There is no upload, no account, no sign-in and no telemetry. Detection and redaction both run on the phone, so there's nothing to leak, sell, or subpoena. REAL REDACTION, NOT A BLACK RECTANGLE Most "redaction" just draws a box on top of the data, and anyone can copy the data out or peel the box off later. Scrub destroys the pixels underneath. Once you save, the hidden text, face, or barcode is gone for good and can't be recovered from the new file. Choose your style: • Solid bars: a clean, true pixel burn • Blur: a Gaussian blur over the region • Pixelate: mosaic it out WHAT IT DETECTS • Names and street addresses, found automatically by on-device AI and never uploaded • Emails, phone numbers, card and account numbers, read by on-device OCR • Faces • Barcodes and QR codes • Region-specific identifiers for the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand: national and tax IDs, postal codes, and more, chosen automatically by your device region • Your own custom terms: add a nickname, employer, or account label for extra certainty on top of automatic detection YOU'RE IN CONTROL Detections appear as red boxes right on the image. Tap to review each one, add anything Scrub missed, remove anything you want to keep, then redact. Scrub never touches the original file; it always saves a new "-scrubbed" copy. • Pinch to zoom, drag to pan • Double-tap to add a detection by hand • Accept all or review one by one • Batch up to 10 files in a single pass METADATA, GONE TOO Photos carry hidden EXIF data: GPS location, device, timestamps. PDFs carry author and app metadata. Scrub strips it from the output, irreversibly. PRIVACY BY DESIGN You can only really trust a privacy claim if the app never phones home, so Scrub doesn't. No analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporters. Your custom terms list stays on your device, where you can see it and delete it at any time. We have nothing to hand over, because we never collect anything. SUBSCRIPTION Scrub is free to use, with 3 saved files every 7 days.
