Blur the background of a photo

Make your subject pop with a soft, blurred background like a professional camera. The subject is detected on your device; set the blur strength and download.

Runs on your device — your image is never uploaded. For faces, plates and documents, use strong settings: light blur can sometimes be partly reversed.

Need more control? Open the full blur & pixelate tool.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work on any photo?
Best on a clear subject — a person, pet or product — in front of a separate background. Very busy scenes are harder to separate.
Can I control how blurry it is?
Yes — drag the strength slider from a gentle softness to a heavy blur.
Is anything uploaded?
No — the subject detection and blur both run in your browser.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser — your files never leave your device.
