What Blurify can blur for you

Fifteen focused guides, one editor. Blur faces in group photos, pixelate a license plate before you sell a car, redact names and numbers on a document, or sanitize a screenshot before you share a bug. Every guide opens with a real before-and-after straight from the editor — the EXIF page shows a live metadata table instead — and its FAQs answer the awkward questions plainly: what’s auto-detected versus drawn by hand, whether a blur can be undone, and where your file actually travels.

Not sure which guide fits?

  • Faces — friends, kids, strangers in the background.
  • Anonymizer — one pass over every face — blur, pixelate, bar, or emoji them all.
  • Plates — anything parked, driven, or sold.
  • Number plate — the same job in the other dialect: the reg, the car number.
  • Screenshots — app UI, chat threads, code and dashboards.
  • Documents — the higher-stakes cousin: forms, scans and IDs.
  • Text — one written detail: a name, an email, a row of a table.
  • Pixelate — the same face-hiding job with hard, visible blocks.
  • EXIF — the one you can’t see: GPS and camera data inside every phone photo.
  • Address — keeps your home off the map when a listing photo goes up.
  • Censor — when the style is the point: soft blur, pixel blocks, a flat black bar, or an emoji.
  • Region — the generalist: blur one dragged box, leave the rest untouched.
  • Nudity — breasts, genitals, buttocks — each its own region, blurred or barred.
  • Emoji — a sunglasses smiley, a ghost, a star — 22 stickers, one per face.
  • Background — cut it out, blur it past reading, or replace it with a flat color.

Several things in one photo?

You don’t have to choose — each guide opens the editor set up for its own job (scanning for its subject, or ready for you to draw a box or work on the background), and anything else is one click away under “Scan for”, so a face, a license plate, and a document in the same shot can all be outlined on one canvas; open whichever guide matches your main worry and add the rest there. Genuinely unsure where to start? Drop the image in the editor and let what it outlines tell you what needs hiding — turn on Documents & text or Screens & cards under “Scan for” if paperwork or a screen is in shot. It’s all free, so there’s no wrong door.
