Collect a clue from text or an image
A typed name, phone tail, platform handle, plate, screenshot, or photo can all start the workflow.

How the current iPhone app handles a repeat-encounter warning
Blacklist Assistant already runs as a private iPhone app. Today it supports direct lookup, image-assisted lookup from photos and screenshots, manual confirmation, and editable blacklist records inside one workflow.
Current product shape
The app is already beyond a concept page.
Today it has working surfaces for lookup, add to blacklist, confirmed blacklist review, and account/settings on iPhone.
- Start from a clue Type a name, phone tail, platform account, or plate, or extract one from an image.
- Decide with a human step when needed Uncertain cases can pause in review instead of going straight into confirmed records.
- Keep a stable record afterward Confirmed entries remain searchable and editable later.
Current workflow
What the product already does today
The current flow is built around moving from clue to decision without losing context. You can start from text, images, or a remembered identifier, then decide whether the result is confirmed or still needs review.
Run lookup against the current blacklist
The app checks whether that clue already points to someone the household decided to avoid.
Confirm directly or queue for review
When the evidence is incomplete, the case can sit in review instead of becoming a bad confirmed record.
Reopen the confirmed record later
Once confirmed, the detail page stays editable so the record can get cleaner instead of being recreated.
Live app surfaces
The product already has real working screens.
These are real screens from the latest app. The UI is in Chinese today, but the workflow is the same one described on this page.
Why this works
The product treats one person as a continuing decision, not just one screenshot.
That means the app has to hold different clue types, let someone stop and review uncertain cases, and keep a confirmed record easy to reopen later.
Multiple clue types
Name, phone tail, platform account, plate, and image text can all point into the same decision flow.
Human review before lock-in
Not every clue is strong enough on its own, so the app keeps space for a deliberate review step.
Editable confirmed record
Once something is confirmed, the detail page stays available for cleanup, correction, and later reuse.
