How to blur part of a photo

  1. Choose your photo.
  2. Find faces automatically or drag boxes over what you want to hide.
  3. Choose the effect: blur, pixelate or a black box, and the strength.
  4. Download the protected photo.
Good practice: hide children’s faces, school names, house numbers and car number plates before posting photos publicly.

Private: your photo never leaves your device

Every HayaPhoto tool works inside your web browser. Your picture is not uploaded to a server, so nobody else can see it, store it or use it. That makes it safe for passport photos, ID documents and family pictures. When you close the page, the photo is gone from our tool.
