→Frequently asked questions
- How do I blur faces in a photo?
- Upload your image and faces are detected and blurred automatically. Adjust the blur strength if needed, then export.
- Does it blur every face in the image?
- Yes. The AI looks for all faces in the photo, including small faces in group shots and crowds, and blurs each one.
- How do I make the blur stronger?
- Raise the blur sigma slider. Larger values hide facial features more completely.
- What does the expand slider do?
- It grows the blurred area past the edge of each detected face, so hairlines, ears and outlines are covered too.
- Should I blur or pixelate faces?
- Blur gives a softer, more natural look. Pixelation is more obviously censored. Use Censor People with Pixelate for a blocky style.
- 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.
