Frequently Asked Questions

How do I blur an image?

Upload your image and drag the Blur Strength slider until you reach the softness you want — the preview updates live. Click Download to save the blurred image.

Can I use this to hide sensitive information?

A strong blur obscures faces, license plates, or text for casual sharing. For legal redaction, note that heavy pixelation or a solid box is more secure than blur, which can sometimes be partially reversed.

How strong can the blur be?

The slider goes from a subtle 1-pixel softening up to a heavy blur that removes all fine detail, so you can dial in anything from a gentle glow to full obscuring.

Does blurring change my image resolution?

No. The output keeps the original width and height — only the sharpness changes. PNG export is lossless.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. Blurring runs locally in your browser using the Canvas API, so your images never leave your device.

What formats can I use?

Upload PNG, JPG, JPEG, WebP, or BMP, and export as PNG, JPG, or WebP.
