About the Blur Image
This free blur image tool lets you add an adjustable blur to a whole picture or just a chosen area. It is perfect for hiding faces, licence plates, addresses or sensitive details before you share a screenshot or photo online, and for creating soft, dreamy backgrounds.
The blur is applied in your browser with a live preview, so nothing is uploaded and you can fine-tune the strength before saving. When you are happy, download the result as a high-quality image in a couple of clicks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I blur just one part of the image?
Yes. Select a rectangular region over the area you want to hide — such as a face or a car number plate — and only that part is blurred, leaving the rest of the photo sharp.
Is the blur reversible by others?
A strong Gaussian-style blur discards fine detail, making it very hard to recover the original content. For sensitive information, use a high blur strength or a solid pixelation so nothing can be reconstructed.
Are my images uploaded to a server?
No. The blur runs entirely in your browser on a canvas, so the picture never leaves your device and nothing is stored anywhere.
What image formats can I blur?
Common web formats such as JPG, PNG and WebP all work. The tool exports a standard image you can download and share anywhere.
