On-device · Original preserved
Blur Photo finds faces in your pictures so you can hide them in a tap — or cover anything else by hand. You export a new copy; the photo you shot stays exactly as it was.
Free for single-photo editing · iPhone
The editor
Everything happens in a single darkroom-style editor. Pick faces, swap cover styles, paint by hand — then compare and export.
Faces
Turn a crowded photo into a shareable one in seconds.
Blur Photo looks for faces in the photo and shows each one as a card. Tap the ones you want to hide and they are covered right away — the strength slider controls how much.
Cover
Pick a look that hides the detail without ruining the photo.
Switch between cover styles and tune the strength with a live slider. The same style can be reused across photos so a set of pictures stays consistent.
Brush
Screens, plates, documents, tattoos — cover anything by hand.
Drag over any area to cover it. Brush is the fallback when no face is found, and the tool for details that matter only to you.
Batch Pro
Apply a cover style to a whole set, then review each photo.
Edit one photo, apply its style to the rest of the batch, and check each result before anything is saved. Exporting more than one photo is part of Blur Photo Pro.
Compare & Export
Share knowing what changed — and what didn't.
Compare shows the edited photo against the original before you commit. Export saves a new copy with the resolution, format and quality you choose, and strips location data if you want.
Workflow
No accounts, no uploads. Pick a photo, cover what you want, check the result, save a copy.
01
Choose one photo or a handful from your library. Nothing is uploaded — editing happens on your iPhone.
02
Tap detected faces, pick a cover style, or paint with the brush. Strength is adjustable at any time.
03
Slide between the original and the edited photo to make sure nothing extra was hidden.
04
Save a new copy with your export settings. The original photo stays untouched in your library.
Use cases
Blur Photo is built around the moments where a face or a detail should not travel with the picture.
A great street shot, a restaurant table, a beach day — strangers are in frame and you don't want to publish their faces.
Import the photo → tap the faces you want hidden → compare → export a clean copy.
The photo keeps its mood while the people in it stay private.
Post without exposing bystandersA team lunch or family gathering where some people are fine being shown and others would rather not be.
Detect faces → select only the ones to hide → apply a cover style → review each photo in a batch.
Everyone who agreed to be in the post stays visible; the rest don't.
Group photos, selective privacyPhotos where the problem isn't a face: a laptop screen, a delivery label, a license plate, a document on the table.
Open Brush → paint over the area → adjust size and strength → export with location data removed.
The photo is usable and the sensitive detail is unreadable.

FAQ
Editing is performed on your device. Blur Photo does not need an account and does not upload your photos to process them.
No. Exporting saves a new copy with your settings; the original photo stays as it was. That is what 'original preserved' means throughout the app.
