// BLUR IMAGE · ABOUT THIS TOOL

About the Blur Image

Before sharing a photo publicly, there is often something in it that should not be public: a child's face, a car plate, a house number. This tool blurs the whole image or just a chosen region, with a strength slider from gentle haze to heavy censor blur.

The live preview shows exactly what will be exported, and because all the work happens in your browser, the photo you are trying to protect is never uploaded anywhere.

Where it helps most

Redact first, post second.

Car listings

A license plate in a car listing gets blurred before the photos go public. Quick, professional-looking redaction without cropping the whole scene away.

School event photos

A child's face in a school event photo gets painted over with the brush. Adjustable brush size and blur strength cover a small logo or a whole face.

Meeting screenshots

Confidential text on a whiteboard behind you in a meeting screenshot disappears under the brush. The rest of the scene stays untouched.

Package labels

An address visible on a package in an unboxing photo gets hidden in seconds. Paint, preview, and download the redacted image.

Blur it right

Two styles, one rule for sensitive data.

Two blur styles

Two styles are available: smooth Gaussian blur that softens details into an unrecognizable haze, and pixelate that reduces the area to chunky blocks like news broadcasts use.

Pixelate is safer

A light blur can sometimes be partially reversed on high-contrast text. For IDs or account numbers, use pixelate with large blocks.

Brush or full image

The brush lets you paint over exactly the regions you want hidden. Prefer one click? Blur the entire image at once, which suits backgrounds you want as context.

Blur Image: private by design

The very images people blur are the ones they least want on a stranger's server. Everything stays local.

Use the brush tool. Paint over the face or object you want hidden, adjusting the brush size to match the area. Only the painted regions are blurred; the rest of the photo stays sharp.
