Pixelate part of an image or the whole thing

Paint over anything you want to hide, or drag a box over text. Choose pixelate, blur or a solid bar. The saved photo also drops hidden location data, so it is safe to share.

How it works

How to use Pixelate Image

  1. 01

    Drop a photo or screenshot.

  2. 02

    Choose Pixelate, Blur or Solid, then paint or drag a box over what to hide.

  3. 03

    Download the cleaned photo.

Share without oversharing

Number plates, house numbers, faces of children, names in chats and card numbers on screenshots can all be hidden in seconds before you post.

Strong enough to trust

Use Solid for anything sensitive like passwords or account numbers. Strong pixelation is fine for faces and plates; light blur is best for style, not secrets.

Location data removed

The saved image is a fresh copy without the hidden EXIF data, so it no longer carries the place where it was taken.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can blurred text be recovered?

Light blur can sometimes be reversed. For passwords, account numbers and anything sensitive, use Solid to cover it completely.

Can I undo?

Yes. Every stroke and box can be undone and redone.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. Everything runs in your browser, so your photo never leaves your device.
