→Frequently asked questions
- How do I blur the background of a photo?
- Upload your photo and adjust the blur amount. The main subject is detected automatically and stays sharp while everything behind it is blurred.
- Does it only work on people?
- No. It finds the main subject of any photo, including pets, products, and food.
- Will the subject's colors bleed into the blur?
- No. The subject is removed before the background is blurred, so its colors do not smear into the background.
- What kinds of photos work best?
- Photos with one clear main subject, such as a person, pet, or product, give the cleanest results. The subject is found automatically, so no prompt or selection is needed.
- What file formats can I export?
- You can export as PNG, JPEG, WebP, TIFF, BMP, or HEIC.
- Is this tool free to use?
- Yes — completely free, no account needed. Your images are processed entirely in your browser and never uploaded to a server. Downloads have no watermarks.
