What does the mobile phone camera photo watermark mean?

Digital photography watermark is a photo, logo or text overlaid on a photo to prevent unauthorized use by a third party. I can't say that watermarking is an effective way to protect photos online. There are more effective alternatives to protect and promote your photos. However, before finding these alternatives, let's make clear everything about old-fashioned photography and watermarking.

Most mobile phones turn on the watermark option by default, and the mobile phone will automatically add watermarks to all photos taken by users. In some mobile phones, the watermark also displays user information, such as the name set by the user.

Personally, I don't like these watermarks in the photos. I want a perfect photo, not confused by watermarks and phone messages.

Many times, readers ask me how to remove annoying watermarks from photos taken by mobile phones. Fortunately, there is a way to disable or delete the watermark of photos on Google Android phones.

The camera application allows users to show or hide the watermark on photos, and users can turn the watermark function on or off as needed.

This tutorial will help you if you are also using a smartphone and want to disable the watermark on photos taken by the camera application. In addition, if your mobile phone supports the watermarking function, but does not automatically add watermarks to photos, this tutorial will help you add digital watermarks to all photos.

This tutorial will be applicable to all Android phones that support the watermark function, such as Yijia, Redmi (Poco), Gionee, Vivo, Oppo(Realme) and so on. It will also apply to third-party camera applications downloaded from Google Play Store, which also support watermarking.

Check the following steps to add or delete watermarks on camera photos of Android phones:

1. First, open the camera application on your phone.

2. Now open the settings or options in the camera application. In some phones, the settings or options icon (gear icon) is displayed in the upper right corner of the camera application. In some phones, you need to swipe left or down to access the camera settings or option icons.

3. After opening the settings or options page in the camera application, look for watermark options. Usually its labels are lens watermark, photo watermark, camera watermark and dual camera watermark.
