Blur ↔ Pixelate
Blur or pixelate?
Blur creates a smooth softening effect, while pixelation replaces detail with visible blocks. Both can hide information, but pixelation is often better when you want an obvious censoring effect.
Try the Pixelate Image tool →Local processing
Your images stay on your device
The editor performs the image processing in your browser. The file is not sent to BlurringTool for editing, which makes the tool suitable for images that contain personal or confidential details.
