OVERVIEW

GalleryGuard™

GalleryGuard™ is an unobtrusive layer that activates only when a capture attempt is made. On iOS, screenshots of your retail galleries produce a fully black image; on desktop, the gallery falls back to an intense blur, keeping proofs from being lifted. The technology is live on NowCandid retail pages and continues to evolve with new browser/app support.

Key Benefits

1

Stops screenshot grabs (iOS) — iOS screenshot attempts render a black image.

2

Blurs desktop attempts — Desktop screenshot attempts trigger an intense blur.

3

Works where customers browse — Support expanded to in‑app browsers, including Facebook & Instagram.

How It Works

1

Modern, unobtrusive protection. When a shopper tries to capture what’s on screen, GalleryGuard intervenes: on iOS the captured image appears fully black; on desktop a protective blur is applied. Your online gallery stays beautiful until a capture is attempted.

2

Evolving coverage. Protection is active across NowCandid retail pages and continues to improve as we broaden browser/app support.

3

What it doesn’t do. GalleryGuard reduces common digital copying paths; it can’t stop a photo of the screen from another device, and behavior can vary by OS/browser updates. (That’s why we pair it with watermarking options and smart URL/session controls.)

Why Photographers Love It

1

Protects proofs without punishing buyers — no heavy, noisy watermarks during normal browsing.

2

White‑label retail stays clean — protection applies only when it’s needed.

3

No fancy photoshop requests — safeguards users from going around traditional watermark methods using photo editing apps.
