Why use it
Why use this blur image?
Three levels of hiding
Blur for a soft look, pixelate for a classic censor effect, or a solid block when the content must be completely unreadable.
Undo as you go
Every area is its own step, so you can undo the last one or clear them all and start again.
Private details stay private
The image is edited in your browser and is never uploaded, so the information you are hiding is never exposed to a server.

Good to know
Blur, pixelate or block: which is safest?
Light blurs and large pixels can sometimes be partly reversed, especially on short text like numbers. For passwords, keys and account numbers, use the solid block or a high strength. Recording your screen instead? ScreenBadger’s privacy blur automatically hides passwords, emails and tokens while you record.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can someone unblur my image?
The exported PNG contains only the blurred pixels, not the original. Weak blurs on short text can still be guessed, so use a high strength or the solid block for anything critical.
Can I blur more than one area?
Yes. Draw as many rectangles as you need. Each can use a different effect and strength.
Does it work on phones?
Yes. Drag with your finger to draw an area on touch screens.
Is my image uploaded?
No. Everything happens in your browser, and the original image never leaves your device.
