Blur a face in a photo

Hide a face, a license plate, an address or any sensitive info before sharing a photo. Blur or pixels, permanent effect — and your image never leaves your device.

Why it matters

A blur that truly protects

Before posting a photo — kids at school, a car plate, a badge, a screenshot with an email or an IBAN — you'd better hide what needs hiding. As long as the blur is irreversible.

GetFormat rewrites the pixels in the area: the original information disappears from the downloaded image. It can't be un-blurred, unlike some light blurs that can be partially reversed. You pick a soft blur or a mosaic pixelation, and the strength.

And since everything runs in your browser, your photo is never uploaded: what's private stays private. Go offline after the page loads and the tool still works.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the blur permanent?

Yes. The pixels in the area are rewritten (blurred or pixelated): the original information no longer exists in the downloaded image and cannot be un-blurred.

Are my photos sent anywhere?

No. All processing happens in your browser; no image is uploaded. Perfect before posting a photo of your kids, a document or a plate.

Can I blur several areas?

Yes, as many as you want: draw several rectangles. You can undo the last area or clear all at any time.

Is it really free?

Yes, free, no sign-up, no watermark.
