Screenshot Blur
Light & color
Saves your edited image at its current dimensions, keeping the original file format. The canvas shows exactly what downloads.
Your images are processed locally in your browser and never uploaded to any server.
Screenshots collect sensitive things by accident: the password manager behind the window, the customer email in the corner, the account number in the sidebar. This tool blurs the whole image to a strength where text is unrecoverable, locally, before you share it.
How to use the screenshot blur
- Add the screenshot that needs something hidden.
- Drag the strength slider: 40+ makes text unrecoverable.
- Press Apply; the blur renders in a background worker.
- Download the blurred screenshot.
Frequently asked questions
Why blur the whole image instead of one region?
This tool blurs everything, stated plainly. It is the safe default when the sensitive data is scattered, or when you want an obviously-redacted overview. For hiding one specific area while keeping the rest readable, annotate around it or use crop plus blur.
How strong does blur need to be to hide text?
Strength 40 and above: characters blur into their neighbors beyond recovery. Light blur (under 15) can leave text readable with effort, or even be undone programmatically. When the content must stay secret, go strong or pixelate instead.
