Blur part of an image

Hide a messy background, a computer screen, a house number or a stranger in the back of a holiday photo. Drag a box over each area and it gets a smooth blur that blends into the picture better than pixels or black bars. Turn the strength up for real privacy, or keep it gentle for a soft, discreet look.

FAQ

Can blurred text be read again?

Weak blur on large text sometimes can. For names, numbers and faces, use a high strength, pixelation or a black bar.

Can it blur faces automatically?

Yes, switch on automatic face detection above, or use the Blur faces page, which has it on by default.

Is my image uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser; the picture never leaves your device.
