Blur or Pixelate Part of a Photo
Hide license plates, shipping labels, faces or addresses before posting a photo online: drag a box with your finger or mouse. The photo never leaves your device, and location data (EXIF) is stripped when you save.
Drag to draw a box over what you want to hide. New boxes use the effect selected above. For sensitive data such as ID or account numbers, use a black box.

How to use
- Choose a photo. It is opened only inside your browser.
- Pick Pixelate, Blur or Black box, then drag over the area to hide. Draw as many boxes as you like.
- Click Save. The new file contains only the edited pixels, without the original’s metadata.
Which effect is safest?
A black box removes the information completely. Mosaic and blur look nicer, but weak settings on large text can sometimes still be guessed, so use a high strength or a black box for numbers such as license plates, tracking numbers, IDs and bank details.
FAQ
Is the location data really removed?
Yes. The image is redrawn onto a new canvas and saved, so EXIF data such as GPS coordinates, camera model and date taken is not carried over.
Does the photo get uploaded?
No. Editing and saving happen entirely on your device.
