Good to know

Protecting privacy in photos

Blurring hides identifying details before you share a photo — faces of bystanders, a child, a license plate, a name badge. This tool works entirely in your browser: it can detect faces automatically and lets you brush over anything else.

Auto-detect vs manual

On browsers that support face detection, faces are found for you when you load a photo. Everywhere else — and for anything that isn’t a face — just drag a box over the area you want to hide.

Pixelate or blur?

Pixelate gives the classic blocky mosaic that clearly signals redaction. Blur is softer and less conspicuous. Turn the strength up for anything that must be unrecoverable.
