Hey Taby

Image editor

Blur private info, crop, mark up. In one ask.

Say “make it safe to share” and Taby hides the emails, phone numbers and faces in your screenshot. Then crop it, add an arrow, done. The picture never leaves your computer.

New in Taby 1.0.14

The short answer

Sharing a screenshot shouldn’t mean sharing your email. New in Taby 1.0.14, Taby has a smart image editor: ask it to blur, pixelate or cover private info, or do it by hand, then crop, resize and mark it up. It all runs on your own computer, offline. Only creative edits, like a new style, use Taby Cloud.

Say it, it’s done

What you say, and what Taby does

  • “Blur my email”

    Finds your email address in the picture and blurs it.

  • “Make it safe to share”

    Hides emails, phone numbers, long numbers and faces in one go.

  • “Cover the name Anna”

    Covers that word wherever it shows up in the picture.

  • “Pixelate the faces”

    Finds the faces and pixelates them.

  • “Copy the text from this”

    Reads the text in the picture so you can paste it anywhere.

  • “Make it smaller for email”

    Resizes and compresses it, so it sends without fuss.

New in Taby 1.0.14. You can also do all of it by hand.

What it does

The boring edits, done for you

Hide private info

Blur, pixelate or cover emails, phone numbers, long numbers, faces and any word you name. “Safe to share” does it all in one go, so you don’t miss the one email in the corner.

Everyday fixes

Crop, resize, compress, convert, rotate, flip and trim. Ask Taby or do it by hand, whichever is quicker.

Mark it up

Arrows, boxes, labels, numbered steps and a spotlight to show where to click. Copy the text out of a picture. Add one of 170 stickers made by Taby.

Pretty screenshots

Put your screenshot on a soft backdrop (peach, sky, mint, lemon or night), blur your email and add a sticker. Ready to post.

Private by default

Hiding private info, cropping, marking up and the other everyday edits run on your own computer. Taby uses the text and face recognition built into your Mac or Windows, so the picture never leaves it, and it works offline.

Removing the background also runs on your computer, on a Mac with macOS 14 or newer. It isn’t on Windows yet.

Creative edits with Premium

A new style, adding or removing things, or a whole new background: those need Taby Cloud with Premium (€8.99 a month). For them, the picture goes to Taby Cloud.

Quick answers

Image editor questions

Is the image editor in Taby now?

Yes. The image editor is new in Taby 1.0.14, the latest update. If you already have Taby, update it and it’s there.

How do I blur an email address in a screenshot?

Ask Taby to “blur my email” and it finds the address in the screenshot and blurs it. Say “make it safe to share” and it hides emails, phone numbers, long numbers and faces in one go. You can also blur, pixelate or cover things by hand.

Does my picture get uploaded anywhere?

No, not for blurring, cropping, marking up or any of the everyday edits. They run on your own computer, using the text and face recognition built into your Mac or Windows, so the picture never leaves it. Only creative edits use Taby Cloud.

Does it work offline?

Yes. Hiding private info, cropping, resizing, converting, arrows, labels and stickers all work with the Wi-Fi off. Creative edits need Taby Cloud and the internet.

Can Taby remove the background from a picture?

On a Mac with macOS 14 or newer, yes, right on your computer. Not on Windows yet.

Can it change the style, add things or swap the background?

Those creative edits need Taby Cloud with Premium (€8.99 a month). Everything else on this page is part of the free app.

Is it a screenshot editor for Mac and Windows?

Both. Taby runs on Apple Silicon Macs and on Windows 10 and 11. The one difference: removing the background is Mac only for now.

What are the stickers?

170 stickers made by Taby, to point at things or just make a screenshot friendlier. Add them by hand or with “pretty screenshot”, which also puts your picture on a soft backdrop.

Share the screenshot, not your email.

Download Taby for Mac or Windows, and ask it to make your next screenshot “safe to share”. The image editor runs on your own computer. No account.
