I designed the Floating Censor out of necessity. I was regularly taking screenshots to share with others on Reddit, and Facebook, and I wanted to cut out their name. I always had to take a screenshot and then edit the name out of the picture. Floating Censor saves you that step by covering the private information when you take a screenshot. You can resize the box to fit anything you want, and you can open an unlimited number of boxes.

Floating Censor uses the StandOut library created by Xda-Developers member PingPongBoss
