    How it works

    • Step 1 — Drop in your photo (JPG, PNG, or WebP).
    • Step 2 — Pick the pixelate or blur brush, set the brush size, pixel block size, and blur strength — then paint over faces, plates, addresses, or anything private. Undo backs out the last 12 strokes.
    • Step 3 — Use “Pixelate Whole Image” for a fully censored version, then download as PNG.

    Everyday uses

    • Parents — hide kids’ faces before posting family photos publicly.
    • Sellers — blur license plates in car listing photos.
    • Reviewers — censor addresses on screenshots and unboxing photos.
    • Anyone — anonymize profile pictures and memes.

    Rule of thumb: use a block size at least as tall as the text you want to hide — if you can still read it, go bigger.
