How to use this tool

  1. Choose a photo or screenshot.

  2. Draw a rectangle or ellipse over the area.

  3. Choose “Blur” and adjust the strength.

  4. Check the selection and save the image.

Use fully opaque black coverage for confidential text and personal details.

Change only the areas you choose

Leave the rest of the image unchanged. Add more areas and adjust their size and position separately.

Blur or pixelate?

Blur softens edges. Pixelation creates a pixel pattern. Both change the appearance; solid black coverage completely covers the selected area.
