One UI 7 must have OxygenOS 15’s Privacy Watermark, Auto Pixelate features

OnePlus is reportedly developing two advanced privacy features. Android 15-based OxygenOS 15 is expected to bring Privacy Watermark, auto-pixelate image features. It would be interesting to see whether Samsung’s One UI 7 introduces such features.

OxygenOS 15 Photos app could bring a new “Privacy Watermark” feature. The feature description indicates that it will put a watermark on your photo, indicating it is an official document application. However, you will also have an option to customize the watermark.

Misuse of documents may not be addressed, but the watermark will enhance privacy with a native indicator. The photos may add a less visible watermark throughout the area, probably identical to what leakers paste on CAD and render images.

OxygenOS 15 would also have an enhanced Pixelate feature. The Auto Pixelate functionality will likely automatically pixelate screenshots right before sharing them with someone. Pixelate would target user details like name, date of birth, passwords, card info, and so on.

Samsung Notes app is equipped with a lot of features focussed on document privacy. The Gallery app also has a watermark feature, but users commonly use it to put device names and capture time. OnePlus-like approach should be followed by Samsung in One UI 7.
