Drag to hide

Choose Mosaic, Blur or Black box and drag across the photo. Hide as many spots as you like, undo one at a time, and raise the strength for a heavier effect.

Handy for marketplace listings, screenshots with phone numbers, group photos and car plates.

Hide it for real

Light blur can sometimes be read back. For account numbers and IDs, a black box is the safest choice.

The saved image is a new file drawn with the effect, so the hidden pixels aren't kept underneath.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with iPhone HEIC photos?

Yes. HEIC is converted automatically when you open it.

Is location data removed too?

The image is redrawn, so EXIF metadata such as GPS location is not carried over.

Is the photo stored anywhere?

No. It's processed in your browser and only saved when you press Save.
