Higher values produce a stronger blur. Set to 0 to keep the image sharp.
Your image never leaves your browser. Blurring is done locally with a hidden canvas element for extra privacy.

What does this Blur Image tool do?

This page lets you blur any picture in a couple of clicks. It’s handy when you want to hide personal information, anonymize faces or backgrounds in screenshots, soften product photos, or create a subtle depth-of-field look for social media and presentations.

Blur methods and radius

  • Standard blur: a fast, smooth blur that’s ideal for light softening and background defocus.
  • Strong blur: applies a heavier effect for hiding text, faces, or other sensitive details more aggressively.
  • Blur radius: controls how intense the blur is. Small values keep shapes recognizable; higher values melt everything into a soft haze.

Tips for better results

  • Use a low radius when you only want a gentle, professional-looking background blur.
  • Use a higher radius and the strong blur method to hide confidential information or anonymize people.
  • Combine this Blur Image tool with other Toolvoria utilities (like crop, resize, or merge images) to prepare assets for web, slides, or social media posts.

Because everything runs locally in your browser, you can safely use this Blur Image tool with screenshots, client materials, and other sensitive visuals without worrying about uploads or privacy issues.
