Eight Ways to Blur an Image
Switch between gaussian, motion, radial, pixelate, and more without leaving the Blur Image editor.
Paint It, or Blur the Background in One Click
The brush lets you blur only what you paint. Flip the invert switch and it works the other way: blur the background of a photo while your subject stays sharp.
Download in Any Format, Upload to No One
Save as PNG for transparency, JPG for smaller files, or WebP for the web. Every pixel stays on your device the whole time.

What People Use It For
“I blur the license plates in my dashcam clips before I post them. The radial option keeps the rest of the frame sharp, which most free tools cannot do.”
Priya Raman
Dashcam footage editor
“Our support team pastes screenshots into tickets all day. The brush lets us blur account numbers in a few seconds without opening real editing software.”
Marco Dietrich
Support operations lead
“I use invert mode to blur the background on every listing photo. It reads like a portrait lens without touching my camera settings.”
