Protecting Privacy with Face Blur

Blurring faces in photos has become an essential privacy tool in the age of social media. Whether you're photographing strangers in public spaces, sharing images of a crowd event, or protecting minors' identities, selective face blur enables you to share images while respecting privacy. This tool lets you manually select which faces to blur by clicking on them.

Unlike automated face detection which can miss faces or blur the wrong areas, manual selection gives you complete control. Click on each face you want to obscure, then apply the blur. The blur radius slider controls how large the blurred area is — larger values cover more of the face but may spill into the background.

For best results, click roughly in the center of each face and adjust the blur radius to cover the entire facial area. The tool uses a box blur algorithm which creates a smooth, natural-looking blur that effectively obscures identifying features like eyes, nose, and mouth.

  • Click the center of each face for the most effective blur
  • Adjust blur radius to cover the full face area
  • Multiple faces can be selected before applying blur
  • Use a larger radius for group photos with faces at different distances
