Faces, style and strength
Your file contents never leave your browser. The file you download contains only the blurred pixels in the marked areas.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
The page loads ads and visit measurement; AI tools download their models once; your file contents are not uploaded. For sensitive files use the isolated mode (/isolated).
Can the blur be undone after I download?
No. The downloaded file contains only the blurred or blacked-out pixels in those areas, so the original detail is not hidden inside it. Keep your original photo if you may need it again.
Why were some faces not found?
Automatic detection works best on faces that are fairly large, well lit and turned towards the camera. Tiny, turned-away, masked or heavily shadowed faces can be missed. Draw a rectangle or an oval over them by hand; it takes a second.
Which format should I download?
PNG keeps every pixel exactly and is the safe choice. JPG gives a smaller file for photos to share by message or email. WebP is small and works in most modern browsers. All three keep your photo's own size.
Can I hide a license plate, a screen or text?
Yes. Automatic detection only looks for faces, but you can draw a rectangle over a number plate, a name, an address or anything else. For small text, use Solid black or a high strength so it cannot be read.
Which style hides the most?
Solid black hides everything. Pixelate and Blur are tuned so faces and text are not recognizable at the default strength; raise the strength for small, sharp details such as a sign or a badge.
