Frequently asked questions

Is redacted text really gone?+

Yes. Redacted pages are rebuilt as images with the content burned out, so hidden text can’t be copied or recovered.

Can it find emails and phone numbers?+

Yes — use the quick finders for emails, phone numbers and long numbers, then review each match.

Are other pages affected?+

No. Pages without redactions stay exactly as they were, with selectable text.

Is my document uploaded?+

Never. Redaction happens on your device — the safest place for sensitive files.
