Frequently asked questions

Can I censor only part of the image?

Yes. Switch to "Selected area" and drag a box on the image. You can move it or resize it from any corner, then apply blur, pixelation or a black bar to just that region.

What is the difference between blur, pixelate and black bar?

Blur softens the area so it is unreadable, pixelate replaces it with large blocks, and black bar covers it with a solid rectangle. Black bar is the most absolute for redaction.

Is it safe for private screenshots?

Yes. The whole tool runs locally in your browser and never uploads your image anywhere.

Can I apply more than one effect?

Yes. Each Apply bakes the current effect into the image, so you can select another area and apply again to censor multiple regions.
