Pixelate part of an image
Hide personal details before you post or send a picture. Paint over faces, number plates or text and they turn into blocky pixels that can't be read back.
Runs on your device — your image is never uploaded. For faces, plates and documents, use strong settings: light blur can sometimes be partly reversed.

Frequently asked questions
- Can pixelation be reversed?
- Not from the downloaded image — the original detail is replaced. Use a large block size for small text so nothing stays legible.
- Can I pixelate the whole photo?
- Yes — switch the area to the whole image for a mosaic effect.
- Is pixelate better than blur?
- Both hide detail. Pixelate is the classic censoring look; blur looks softer. Pick whichever suits your picture.
- Are my files uploaded to a server?
- No. Everything runs entirely in your browser — your files never leave your device.
