What's New

This release fixes an issue that caused Black Highlighter to crash on launch on iOS 15.

Special thanks to Black Highlighter user "mononz" for assisting with tracking down this issue!

App Description

Black Highlighter is an app that makes it easy to hide secret information you don't want to share in images you're going to share anyway.

Redact people's names, e-mail addresses, embarrassing music choices, and more with just the swipe of a finger.

Using the Magic Highlighter, get beautiful, even, complete hiding of text in screenshots and photos. Or switch the magic off to censor anything behind your own scribbles.
