Applies a Gaussian blur effect that smoothly obscures details while maintaining color tones. Ideal for faces and backgrounds.
Creates a mosaic effect by enlarging pixels. Classic censoring style often used for sensitive content in media.
Covers areas with solid black rectangles. Maximum privacy protection, commonly used for text redaction.
Custom colored overlay for artistic censoring or brand-matching. Choose any color to cover sensitive areas.
No, our censoring is permanent and irreversible. When you blur or pixelate an area, the original pixel data is destroyed and replaced. Unlike some overlay methods, our tool actually modifies the image data, making it impossible to recover the censored content.
No. All processing happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your images never leave your device, ensuring complete privacy. We don't upload, store, or have access to any of your photos.
Blur applies a smooth Gaussian blur that blends pixels together, creating a soft, unfocused look. Pixelate creates a mosaic effect by grouping pixels into larger blocks. Both effectively hide details, but blur looks more natural while pixelate is more recognizable as intentional censoring.
Yes, absolutely! You can draw as many censor areas as you need. Each new area is applied independently, and you can mix different methods (blur some areas, pixelate others) in the same image. Use the Undo button if you make a mistake.
We support all common image formats including JPEG, PNG, WebP, GIF, and BMP. For output, you can choose between PNG (best quality, larger files), JPEG (smaller files, adjustable quality), or WebP (modern format with excellent compression).
Only the censored areas are affected. The rest of your image remains at its original quality. When saving, choose PNG for lossless quality or JPEG/WebP with high quality settings (90%+) to minimize any additional compression artifacts.
