Searching for an “app to certify photos” or “captura de fotos certificadas”? If you need your photos or files to carry legal value (EU/US/UK/CA/AU), avoid simple screenshots or gallery apps. You need a forensic-grade file certification with digital signature and qualified timestamp. That’s what our sister portal https://contentprotector.eu/ provides.
Photos vs. web pages: two different certifications
- Web pages & online content → certify with https://www.certifywebcontent.com/ (HTML, source, headers, network traces, capture video).
- Photos, videos, documents → certify files with https://contentprotector.eu/ (sealed, signed, time-stamped package).
Why a “photo certification app” is usually not enough
- Cryptographic integrity: SHA-256 of the original file (unaltered).
- Qualified e-signature + RFC 3161 qualified timestamp from an EU QTSP (eIDAS), commonly assessed in US/UK/CA/AU.
- Chain of custody and a lawyer-ready technical report describing origin, method, time and verification.

FAQ
Do I need EXIF?
EXIF helps, but legal weight comes from hash + qualified timestamp + digital signature and the report.
Can I certify edited images?
Yes, but we recommend certifying the original. You can also certify both versions (each with its own hash).
Is it valid outside the EU?
Our eIDAS signatures and timestamps are widely assessed in US/UK/CA/AU. For extra-EU proceedings we can add a Digital Evidence Certification Statement upon request.
