## What is a redacted text generator?

A **redacted text generator** blacks out your words with solid blocks (`█████`), giving them the classic censored, classified, or “top secret” look. It keeps the spaces between words, so the shape of the redaction still reads like a real document.

## How to use it

1. Type your text in the box.
2. Pick a solid, shaded, or light block style.
3. Tap **Copy** and paste the redacted text anywhere.

## Frequently asked questions

**How does the redacted text generator work?**

It replaces each visible character in your text with a solid block character (█), keeping the spaces, so the result looks like a redacted or censored document. Choose solid, shaded, or light blocks.

**Is the original text still hidden inside?**

The blocks replace your characters entirely, so the copied result contains only block characters — the original letters are not stored inside. Keep your own copy of anything you still need.

**Where can I use redacted text?**

Memes, posts, and messages where you want a 'classified' or censored look, and design mock-ups. It is real Unicode, so it pastes into most apps.

**Is it free and private?**

Yes — everything runs in your browser with no sign-up, and your text is never uploaded.
