Blur Face in Photo for Privacy

Before sharing photos on social media or sending them in messages, blurring the faces of people who have not consented to being photographed is increasingly important. It is also required in many journalism and social media contexts when publishing crowd photos or images of minors.

This tool applies a uniform Gaussian blur to the full image — ideal for quickly softening portrait photos so faces are unrecognisable while keeping the overall composition intact. Set the blur radius to 10–15 for a strong face-blurring effect.

Your photo never leaves your device — blur is applied using the Canvas API in your browser tab. Download the blurred version as JPEG (smaller file for sharing) or PNG (lossless, for archiving).
