Blur faces in a photo in seconds: this free tool finds faces automatically and covers them with pixels, a blur or a solid block of color. It runs entirely in your browser, so the picture is never uploaded, and the saved copy carries no location data. Add a photo and try it.
To blur faces in pictures, add one JPG, PNG, HEIC or WebP image by dragging it in, choosing a file or pasting with Ctrl+V, then tap the auto-detect button. It scans the whole image and then re-checks it in smaller sections, so even small faces in the back row of a group photo get caught. Each face it finds is covered with an oval.
Faces in profile, partly covered or very small can still slip through, so you can add areas yourself: drag a rectangle or paint with the brush (size 1–10). Tap any rectangle or oval once to remove a false match, and use undo or clear all to start over. Choose pixelate, blur or a solid color you pick, with strength from 1 to 10. The pixel or blur size is set by each covered area rather than the whole photo, so even a large close-up face is hard to recognize at the default strength; lower strength shows more detail, and a solid block hides everything.
Face detection runs on your device with MediaPipe. A detection engine of about 12 MB downloads once on first use, and your photo never leaves your device. When you save as JPG or PNG, the image is redrawn from scratch, so EXIF metadata such as GPS location is not carried over. Photos larger than 4096 px on the long side are scaled down to 4096 px for processing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q. How do I blur a face in a photo for free?
A. Add the photo to this page, tap the auto-detect button and save. Every face found is covered with an oval of pixels, blur or solid color, and you can add or remove areas by hand. It's free and runs in the browser on a computer or phone, with nothing to install.
Q. Can a pixelated or blurred face be recovered?
A. Not in practice if you used strong pixelation or a solid block. The saved file is a newly drawn image, so the cover can't be peeled off like a layer, and a solid block leaves none of the original information. Very low strength is different: a light blur or fine pixelation can leave some features visible. Because the cell size follows each covered area, the default strength already makes a close-up face hard to recognize, and a solid color is the safest choice.
Q. Are my photos uploaded to a server?
A. No. Face detection and saving both happen in your browser, and the photo is never sent anywhere. On save the image is redrawn, so EXIF data such as the GPS location where it was taken is left out.
Q. Will it find every face in a group photo?
A. Most of them, yes. It scans the whole picture and then searches again section by section, which catches small faces in the back rows. Faces seen from the side, partly covered or very small can still be missed, so check the result and add a rectangle or brush stroke where needed.
Q. Can I also hide a license plate or text?
A. Yes, by hand. Automatic detection looks only for faces, but you can drag a rectangle or use the brush over a license plate, name tag or address. For numbers and letters, a solid block or strong pixelation is the safest choice.
