Blur a face or part of a photo

Hide a face, a licence plate, an address or a screen before posting an image. Draw a rectangle or paint with your finger, choose pixelate, blur or a solid block, then download the result.

How it works

  1. Open the photo you want to edit.

  2. Select the areas to hide with the rectangle or brush, using the effect and strength you want.

  3. Download the blurred image, without metadata.

Frequently asked questions

Can the blur be undone?

The original pixels are replaced in the downloaded file, so the blur can't be “removed”. For maximum protection, use strong pixelation or the solid block, which are safer than a light blur.

Is my photo sent anywhere?

No. The image is opened and edited in your browser, then downloaded from your device. AnonShot never receives it.

Are faces detected automatically?

No, selection is manual: you decide exactly what disappears, with no missed face or false positive from an algorithm.

Is the metadata kept?

No. The downloaded image is rebuilt from the pixels, so the GPS location and camera details are gone.
