Blur faces before you post
Posting a photo from a school event, a protest, a street or a party? Other people in it may not want to be online. Pick the photo and every face is found for you and hidden. Tap a face to keep it sharp, like your own, or tap and drag anywhere else to hide more: a name badge, a number plate, a house number.
Faces are found by a small model that runs on your phone, so the photo you most want to keep private never leaves it.
Blur or pixelate
Blur softens each face into an oval smudge. Pixelate turns it into large squares. Both are permanent: the face is replaced in the saved photo, not covered by a layer that can be peeled off.
Pick as many photos as you like. Each one gets its own faces found, and you can tap any photo in the list to check it.
Questions
Does it find every face?
It finds most faces, including small ones in group photos and faces turned to the side. Faces that are tiny, blurred or mostly hidden can be missed, so check each photo before you post it. If one was missed, tap it or drag a box over it.
Can someone undo the blur?
No. The face is shrunk to a handful of pixels and drawn back, so the detail is gone from the saved photo. There is no hidden layer and no original kept inside the file.
Can I blur a number plate or a name badge?
Yes. Tap or drag a box over anything you want hidden. It is blurred the same way as a face.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. Faces are found and blurred on your phone or computer, in the browser. The face finder is a small download (about 0.3 MB) that is kept for next time. Load the page, turn on airplane mode and try it: it still works.
What about animated GIFs?
Faces move from frame to frame, so an animated GIF comes out as a still of its first frame, with the faces hidden.
