Use Cases
Common Reasons To Blur Faces
Social Media Posts
Hide bystanders, friends who prefer privacy, or children before you share a photo.
Group Photos
Blur only the people who did not agree to be shown and keep everyone else clear.
News And Blogs
Protect sources, witnesses and people in public places in articles and thumbnails.
Reports And Slides
Anonymize photos in presentations, case studies and research materials.
Plates And Details
Use Add Area to blur number plates, house numbers, name tags or screens.
Listings And Reviews
Hide faces in property, product or marketplace photos before posting.
Choosing A Style
Blur, Pixelate Or Solid?
| Style | Looks Like | Best For |
|---|---|---|
| Light Blur | Soft, the face shape is still visible | Casual posts where you just want less focus on someone |
| Strong Blur | A smooth, unrecognizable patch | Most privacy needs, social media, blogs |
| Pixelate | Large square blocks | A clear "hidden on purpose" look, news style |
| Solid | A black shape over the face | Maximum privacy, legal or sensitive documents |
Tip For Real Privacy
Light blur and small pixel blocks can sometimes be partly reversed or recognized. When identity really matters, use strong blur, large pixels or solid, and make the area big enough to cover hair and ears too.
Better Detection
If A Face Is Missed
The detector works best on clear, front-facing faces. If one is missed, simply add it yourself with Add Area.
Good Light
Very dark or backlit faces are harder to find.
Side Profiles
Faces turned fully sideways may be skipped.
Tiny Faces
Very small faces in big crowds can be missed.
Add Area
Drag over any spot to blur it by hand.

Blur Face FAQ
Is This Face Blur Tool Free?
Yes. Face Shape Detector Free lets you blur, pixelate or cover faces at no cost, with no sign-up, no limits and no watermark on your download.
Is My Photo Uploaded To A Server?
No. Face detection and blurring both run inside your browser. Your photo stays on your device and is never sent, stored or shared.
Can I Blur More Than One Face?
Yes. The tool finds every face it can see, including group photos, and blurs them all by default. Tap a face or its number to keep it visible.
Can I Blur Only One Person And Keep The Rest Clear?
Yes. Tap Unblur all, then tap only the face you want to hide. Each face can be switched on or off on its own.
How Do I Make The Blur Stronger?
Move the Strength slider to the right. You can also make the area bigger with Area Size so hair, ears and the edges of the face are covered too.
What Is The Difference Between Blur And Pixelate?
Blur softens the face into a smooth patch. Pixelate turns it into large square blocks, the look often used on TV and in news. Solid covers the face with a black shape for full privacy.
Why Was A Face Not Detected?
Faces that are very small, turned to the side, covered, or in poor light can be missed. Use Add Area and drag over the face to blur it by hand.
Can I Blur Things That Are Not Faces?
Yes. Add Area lets you drag a box over anything, such as number plates, name badges, house numbers, tattoos or a screen.
Which Image Formats Can I Use?
JPG, PNG and WebP photos up to 20 MB. Your download keeps the same format and the full resolution of the original photo.
Is A Blurred Face Safe To Publish?
Strong blur, large pixels or a solid cover make a face very hard to recognize. Light blur can still leave a face recognizable, so use a strong setting for anything sensitive.
