OVERVIEW

GalleryGuard™

GalleryGuard™ is an unobtrusive protection 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. GalleryGuard uses patent-pending screenshot prevention on NowCandid retail pages. The technology is live on NowCandid retail pages and continues to evolve with new browser/app support.

Key Benefits

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

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

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

Profit associated icon for program revenue features.

How It Works

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.

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

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

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

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

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