Blur & redact images

Hide faces and private details, then bake every protected area into the exported pixels.

Protect a face, number plate, address, message, or any other private area with blur, pixelation, or a solid cover. Draw as many rectangle or ellipse regions as you need, move and resize them, and hold the before control to check your work.

Face suggestions run locally on your device and remain optional — you can always mark any area manually. Export creates a new full-resolution image with the effects flattened into its pixels, while your original file stays unchanged.

JPG · PNG · WebP · one image · up to 50 MB / 40 MP

How it works

  1. Add one image. Drop, paste, or choose a JPG, PNG, or WebP file up to 50 MB and 40 megapixels.
  2. Mark private areas. Draw rectangle or ellipse regions manually, or ask the on-device detector to suggest faces, then choose blur, pixelate, or solid for each region.
  3. Check and export. Compare with the original, inspect every sensitive area, and download a flattened full-resolution JPG, PNG, or WebP copy.

Frequently asked questions

Is my image uploaded when I redact it?

No. Image decoding, optional face suggestions, editing, and export all run locally in your browser.

Can the tool find every face or number plate automatically?

No. Face suggestions are a convenience and may miss a face; number plates and text must be marked manually. Always inspect the whole image before export.

Which effect gives the strongest concealment?

Use Solid when the information must not remain visually interpretable. Blur and pixelation hide details visually but should not be treated as guaranteed anonymization.

Can someone remove the redaction layer afterward?

The downloaded result has no editable redaction layer: protected areas are rendered into the exported pixels. Keep the original file private and share only the checked export.

Does redaction change the original file?

No. ImgTf exports a new image and does not overwrite the original file on your device.
