Not a UX writer but this is super helpful for my day-to-day job where I need grab screenshots of our product for prospective clients, and I need to make quick personalization for each.

@lee_unger1 thanks! Happy to hear you're making good use of it 😊

Would be cool if it could handle web apps, so I could modify sensitive information before sending screenshots to people outside the company

Hi @edita! such an interesting idea. If the app live in your browser, then Polish can handle it! But, you bring an interesting use-case of blurring/obfuscating sensitive text. I'm interested to hear more - would you mind dropping me an email? polishwebapp@gmail.com
Edita Dermontaité
@polishapp unfortunately didn't work with our live app. Also this user case would need some extra security proof, as it can read "sensitive" and non-public data. I don't think there's much more to it. Mainly if tools have names, addresses, prices, cc codes and you need to send someone a screenshot of some functionality, you don't want them to see it (of course). I would't say it's about blurring, more about changing to "fake" names, etc., because you still want the screenshot to look nice and blurring messes that up.

@polishapp will be great to get some feedback, feel free to check it out!
