About the Blur & Pixelate

Before sharing a screenshot or photo online you may need to hide faces, number plates, addresses or personal details. Drag a box over any area to pixelate it, blur it or cover it with a solid block — and undo if you get it wrong.

When to use it

  • Hiding phone numbers and names in chat screenshots
  • Covering children’s faces before posting photos
  • Blurring car number plates and house numbers
  • Redacting account details in a screenshot for a support ticket

Tips for the best results

  • For truly sensitive data, use the solid box — strong blur can sometimes be partially reversed
  • Pixelate with a large block size for a clear “hidden” look
  • The download is a new image; your original file is never modified

How to use the Blur & Pixelate
