Why it works
The simplest way to blur faces in photo
Manual boxes, blur or pixelate, and no upload — blur faces in picture files exactly where you choose, right in the browser.
Soft blur or hard mosaic per face
Choose a soft blur or a hard pixelate mosaic per box to blur face in photo exactly how you want, then push the strength up until nothing recognisable is left. The effect is baked into the saved pixels rather than kept as an editable layer, so a boxed face stays unreadable after you post it — nobody can peel the blur off, crop around it, or pull the original back out of the file you shared.
Remove BackgroundHide one face or every face
Add a box per person across a crowded group shot, or just one to hide a single bystander who happened to walk through the shot. It can blur faces in picture files of any size, and because it can blur faces in picture crops just as well, boxes can overlap when people stand close together, so a crowded frame is no harder than a portrait. You decide exactly who is covered and who stays visible before the picture goes out.
Try it freeYour photo never leaves your browser
The image is processed on your device and nothing is uploaded — no account, no queue, no copy sitting on someone else's server waiting to be deleted. Unlike upload-based editors, there is no privacy trade-off in using the tool: the photo you are trying to protect is never exposed to a third party in order to protect it.
Change BackgroundReal PNG or JPG output
Save the blurred image as a standard PNG or JPG you can open, attach, or post anywhere — no proprietary format, no export credits, and no watermark stamped across your picture. PNG keeps edges crisp for text-heavy screenshots; JPG keeps the file small when you blur faces in picture attachments and just need to send them quickly.

FAQ
Blur faces in photo: common questions
Answers on privacy, blurring multiple faces, formats, cost, and how manual boxing keeps you in control.
No. The image is processed entirely in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device — unlike upload-based editors, it stays private the whole time you blur faces in photo. You can even disconnect from the network before you start and the tool still works.
Add a box over each face and every boxed face is blurred in one export. It is built to blur faces in a group photo, not just a single portrait — box as many as you need, adjust any box afterwards, and remove one if you change your mind before saving.
Yes, you can blur faces in photo online free, with no signup and no watermark. Because it runs locally, there is no server cost to pass on, no per-image credit to spend, and the saved image comes out clean at full resolution.
You can upload PNG, JPG, or WebP and save the result as PNG or JPG. PNG keeps the sharpest quality and is the safer pick for screenshots with text; JPG is smaller for quick sharing when you blur a face in a picture and file size matters more than fine detail.
No — you place each box by hand. Manual boxing lets you decide exactly which faces to blur in the photo, with no auto-detector silently missing someone at the edge of the frame, covering a face you meant to keep, or failing on a profile view or a partly hidden face.
Yes. Photos and videos are handled separately — switch to the video face blur tool to blur faces frame by frame in a clip instead of a still image. The two pages serve different search intents and different controls, so pick the one that matches what you are hiding.
