How to blur an image (hide faces, text & backgrounds)

Blurring is the privacy tool of the internet — hiding faces in screenshots, license plates in car photos, or sensitive text before sharing. The whole image gets a smooth, adjustable blur in one click.

How to blur

• Open Image Blurrer
• Upload your image
• Adjust strength (5 = subtle, 15 = hides faces well, 25+ = heavy)
• Download the blurred version

When to blur

• Faces of people who didn't consent to photos
• License plates before selling a car online
• Confidential text visible on a screen in a photo

Privacy note

Blurring uses the Canvas API in your browser — the image never leaves your device. For more image control, try our Image Resizer and Image Converter.
