Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about the Face Blur Tool

Face Blur is a tool that many people use to hide and anonymize faces in an image. The tool automatically detects faces and applies a blur, pixelate, or redact filter to hide faces.

Auto face detection works best when uploaded clear, front-facing faces. Blurry, distorted, or covered faces can be missed, so check the preview before export. Or switch to manual mode to draw missed areas.

No, photos are processed entirely in your browser and never leave your device.

Use blur to make the hidden area smooth, pixelate to make blur squares, and redact to add a solid black box, and nothing of the original face remains.

Select the blur box you want to move or remove, then click the red trash icon over it to delete it, and drag the box to move it; also resize it by dragging the corner.
