Your Photos Say More Than You Think — Clean Them with PhotoCleaner+

 "It was just one photo…"


We share photos constantly. A picture of an ID for a marketplace transaction. A shipping label. A quick snapshot of a note with an account number on it. But a single photo carries far more than what you see at a glance:


- Social security / national ID numbers, driver's license, passport numbers

- Card numbers, bank accounts, phone numbers, emails

- Faces — and the hidden GPS location & camera data (EXIF) baked into the file


Once personal information is online, it's nearly impossible to take back. PhotoCleaner+ was built to stop that from happening in the first place.

📱 What is PhotoCleaner+?


PhotoCleaner+ is an Android app that automatically detects and masks personal information (PII) in images and PDFs. Its defining feature:


▎ Everything happens 100% on your device. Fully on-device, always.


Your photos are never uploaded to a server, so there's no risk of a leak during processing. In fact, the app doesn't even request gallery or storage permissions. (It only uses the internet permission to show ads — your photos never leave your phone.)





---

✨ It Finds This Automatically


Open an image or PDF, and it detects personal information automatically — no setup required.


Global information

- Emails, card numbers (Luhn-verified), bank accounts & tracking numbers

- Passport/ID MRZ (ICAO 9303 international standard), international phone numbers

- Dates of birth, postal/ZIP codes, and more


Korea-specific information

- Resident Registration Numbers, foreigner IDs

- Driver's license, passport, business registration numbers

- License plates, Korean phone numbers, addresses, names


On top of that, face detection lets you mask the faces of people in your photos, too.

🎯 Simple to Use


1. Share directly from any app — Hit "Share" from your galleryner+, and the editor opens instantly.

2. Automatic detection — PII and faces are found and highlighted for you. (Detection is completely free and unlimited.)

3. Review & edit — Confirm the auto-detected regions, draw youe ones you don't need. Pinch to zoom freely.

4. Mask & export — Selected regions are filled with a solid, opaque color so the covered pixels can never be reconstructed. Export as an image, PDF, or

send to print.


Multi-page PDFs are fully supported. Each page is detected and even pages you never opened are automatically scanned andmasked on export, so nothing slips through by accident.

🔒 The "Honest App" Principles


PhotoCleaner+ is part of CodeDAC's "honest-app" series, with a code level:


- No watermarks on your exports — for everyone, free or Pro. Ald make it unusable, and that's just not honest.

- Every saved or shared photo is re-encoded with no EXIF. GPS location and camera data are stripped automatically.

- Detection and basic (black) masking are completely free and


Upgrade to PhotoCleaner+ Pro for ad-free use, PDF & print expon always-hide keyword list.

Final Thoughts


Protecting your privacy isn't a big production — it starts with one small habit before you hit send. Clean your photos safely with PhotoCleaner+.


PhotoCleaner+ — the personal information in your photos never leaves your phone.

The Story Behind Toddler Word Cards+: An App Made for My Child

My 29-month-old son, Junseo, is in the stage where everything sparks his curiosity. As we walk down the street, he constantly asks, “Daddy, what’s that?” or “What do you call this?” One day, we visited the zoo, and I still remember how excited he was. When he saw an elephant, he shouted, “Elephant!” with joy. Even after we got home, he kept asking, “Where did the elephant go?” So my wife and I started looking for an educational app that could help him learn new words. But most of the apps we found were disappointing — either too complex or filled with ads that distracted him. Some were just simple flashcards that he quickly lost interest in. Then I thought: “Wouldn’t it be great if there were an app where our child could learn naturally and have fun doing it?” That simple thought led to the creation of Toddler Word Cards+ . We designed the app from a child’s perspective — simple, cute, and fun. And from a parent’s perspective — safe, focused, and ad-light. We added features th...

The Birth Story of "Auto Start+" Android App: A Developer's Journey

When you take your first steps into the world of Android app development, you encounter unexpected challenges and moments of achievement that intertwine. Today, I'd like to share the development story of my app "Auto Start+" that I recently launched on the Play Store. The Seed of an Idea It all began with a personal inconvenience. I found it tedious to manually launch all the necessary apps every time I turned on my smartphone. The thought, "Wouldn't it be convenient if frequently used apps started automatically when I turned on my phone?" became the seed for the "Auto Start+" app. Trial and Error in Development Initially, I intended to implement just the automatic app launch feature. However, wrestling with Android's permission system proved more complex than anticipated. Obtaining background execution permissions on newer Android versions was particularly challenging. One night while coding, the system suddenly crashed, and hours of work...
