- What is blur radius and what values should I use?
- Blur radius controls the spread of the blur effect in pixels. Small values (1–5px) create a subtle soft focus. Medium values (10–20px) produce a noticeable blur suitable for background effects. Large values (30–40px) create heavy blur useful for obscuring content or creating stylized effects.
- Can I use this to hide faces or sensitive information?
- The tool blurs the entire image, not specific regions. For full privacy protection of faces or text in an image, a region-specific blur tool would be more appropriate. For light obscuring, the blur tool works, but determined viewers may still be able to make out content under moderate blur.
- Is my image uploaded to a server?
- No. Processing happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device.
