When this tool helps
What actually needs hiding in a photo is usually specific: a phone number on a parcel label, the last four digits of a card, a licence plate, an ID number, faces and names in a chat screenshot. Editors make this fiddly, and phone-gallery mosaic is often too gentle — it looks covered until someone zooms in. Having three methods side by side helps: pixelate for speed, blur when you want the image to stay presentable, and solid cover when you want the information gone for good.
FAQ
Can pixelation be reversed?
Pixelation discards resolution, so the original characters cannot be recovered. But if the blocks are too small, large text can still be legible — be generous with the strength.
Which is safer, a solid block or blur?
A solid block, because the original pixels are overwritten and nothing remains in the file. Blur is the weakest of the three and light blur can sometimes be partially reversed. For phone numbers and card details, cover them completely.
Can I mark several areas?
Yes, as many as you need. Each area is listed separately and can be deleted on its own; one set of settings applies to all of them.
Does it change the image size?
No. The output keeps the original resolution and only the marked areas are altered.
Is the image uploaded?
No — everything runs in the browser, which is exactly why it suits sensitive screenshots.
