Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Blur Image

What image formats are supported?

Our blur image tool supports all common image formats including JPG, JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, and WebP. You can download blurred images in either PNG (best quality) or JPG (smaller file size) format.

Is my image data secure?

Absolutely! All image processing happens locally in your browser. Your images are never uploaded to our servers or stored anywhere. Once you close the page, all data is automatically deleted from your device's memory.

What blur modes are available?

We offer 4 blur modes: Full Image (blur entire image), Select Area (draw rectangles to blur specific regions), Auto Face (automatically detect and blur faces), and Click to Blur (click on specific spots to blur circular areas).

How does auto face detection work?

Our AI-powered face detection automatically identifies faces in your images and allows you to blur them with one click. Perfect for privacy protection in photos. The detection happens entirely in your browser using advanced machine learning models.

Can I blur multiple areas in one image?

Yes! In Select Area mode, you can draw multiple rectangles to blur different regions. In Click to Blur mode, you can click multiple spots. You can also use Auto Face mode to blur all detected faces at once.

What's the difference between blur types?

Gaussian blur creates a smooth, natural blur effect. Motion blur simulates movement in a specific direction. Radial blur creates a blur that radiates from the center, perfect for creating focus effects.

What is the maximum image size I can blur?

There's no strict size limit, but very large images (over 10MB) may take longer to process depending on your device's capabilities. For best performance, we recommend images under 5MB.

Can I adjust the blur intensity?

Yes! Use the intensity slider to control how much blur is applied. Values range from 1 (subtle blur) to 20 (heavy blur). You can preview the effect before downloading.

Should I download as PNG or JPG?

PNG maintains the highest quality but creates larger files. JPG creates smaller files which are better for web use and sharing, with minimal quality loss. Choose PNG for best quality or JPG for smaller file size.

How do I use the Select Area mode?

Click and drag on your image to draw rectangles around the areas you want to blur. You can draw multiple rectangles. The blur is applied automatically as you make selections.

Does face detection require internet?

Yes, the first time you use face detection, the AI models need to be downloaded from a CDN. After that, they may be cached. All processing still happens locally in your browser for privacy.

Do I need to install any software?

Not at all! This is a completely web-based tool that works directly in your browser. No downloads, installations, or plugins required. It works on any device - desktop, tablet, or mobile.

Can I undo the blur effect?

Once blurred, you cannot undo the effect on the downloaded image. However, you can always re-upload your original image and try different settings. The original image is never modified.

Is there a cost to use Blur Image?

Blur Image is completely free to use with no hidden costs, subscriptions, or usage limits. Blur as many images as you need, as often as you want, absolutely free.
