How to use Emoji in Markup to Safely Censor Pupil Faces in Photos

Are you on iOS 17? There's a new (and better!) way to do this: • How to use Emoji and S...
Have you ever wanted to share a photo of your class but can't have certain children faces online? Or perhaps you want to send a picture home to a parent but can't include the other children? You can use the Markup tools built into the Photos app on iPad and iPhone to add an Emoji and position it exactly where you want to safely censor the pupils faces. Simple, easy and safe.
Another great tool to make this process quicker is an app that I've found called MaskerAid. I made a #QuickTips video about it here: • Easily Censor Photos w...

Daaaang, Thank You Jacob!!!!
I use markup quite often, but I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out how to add an emoji to my my head in a photo for a half hour, and never thought to do this until I just found your video! I was trying to download apps that were trying to make me pay for them etc and everything 🤦🏼‍♀️.
Thanks a million for adding this video about this simple trick that costs nothing 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

I'm a late learner thank you thank you for being clear and not bombarding with so many actions!

[@leftyseel8658]

How do you enlarge the emoji on iphone? I don’t see any font menu or slider. Can’t enlarge with two fingers too.

[@chirrutimwe2547]

Thanks 100 times over! I kept finding much too complicated options online until I found this!!!

[@CryptoJoeTrading]

Perfect video, short and to the point thumbs up!

[@taraleebrayshaw5204]

perfect!!! Thank you!! I don't usually use Apple but have an iPad for my classroom. This video was super easy to follow

[@iPhoneQuickTips]

I'm so glad it helped! I'm a teacher who uses iPad in his classroom too and I love it - I've actually made some more classroom focused videos on my second channel if they're any help to you: ua-cam.com/users/iPadQuickLessonswithJacobWoolcock

On iPhone: I can select edit, markup and text, but where does it give the option of using an emoji?

[@TouristAcceptable]

Thanks !

[@iPhoneQuickTips]

No problem!

[@jessicasoto3231]

Any way to do this in a video?

[@iPhoneQuickTips]

Not easily I'm afraid - hopefully that's something that'll change in a future update to iOS. I'll keep you posted!

Thank you!

You're welcome!

[@jaimelam863]

What if you’re not trying to censor a face and just want any emoji anywhere you’d like on any photo you choose?? Is that still possible? 😀

[@maddietrujilpo5526]

Of course it is

[@jackdowdell2724]

I keep seeing/hearing about three little dots to push after I push edit. I cannot see three little dots anywhere on the screen. Help?

[@OGZelda626]

after u press edit there is a marker with a circle around it in place of the three dots

[@producingparadise]

Ah! This is exactly what I was trying to figure out - I knew it would be possible, thanks for the explainer 😁

[@abbad707]

Great video, but why the American pronunciation of privacy?

[@ravida29]

wheres the font menu?

[@LATONYA97THOMAS]

I cannot locate the font menu either

[@ripemango5793]

Want to make my emoji bigger still, it doesn’t cover the face. And I want to stretch it too. I have gone to largest font size … help me please anyone?

[@Beats_and_Shades]

If you upload a picture with an emoji on your face, is there a way for others to erase the emoji and expose your face ?

[@iPhoneQuickTips]

No, once you save it and export it the emoji will be part of the image - just like when you apply filters or crop an image.

Failed to work on my MacBook Pro.

I cant see the three little dot on the left after tapping edit my ios is 15.1？

[@OGZelda626]

[@gamingpointwithleonewa492]

Like how you did

[@jacovalk837]

Is there a way you can remove the emojii if someone send it like that

[@iPhoneQuickTips]

No, when it sends it'll essentially flatten the image so it's locked in place.

That makes sense, this is an iPhone tutorial. I’m sure there are similar things on Android though.

I have no text option, just markup

You should ha A plus sign right beside markup

Just jump into the Photos app on your iPad - it's already there!

Mr perfectly you can search for an android app, pretty sure there’d be a similar one.

[@dareenurfav]

how do u take it away?

[@iPhoneQuickTips]

When you've saved it onto an image and shared it with someone it's basically flattened into the image. That's why it's so great for schools and pupil safety!
