About the Blur Image
Blurring softens an image by spreading each pixel into its neighbours. This tool uses the canvas ctx.filter = 'blur(Npx)' effect, which applies a fast Gaussian-style blur at whatever radius you choose. A small radius gently softens; a large radius turns the picture into smooth washes of color.
Drag the blur radius slider and the preview redraws instantly from the original, so you never stack blur on blur — each setting is applied fresh to the pristine image. When it looks right, Download PNG saves the blurred version losslessly.
A common use is privacy: obscure a face, a license plate, a name, or an account number before sharing a screenshot. Since the whole process runs in your browser, the sensitive original never leaves your device — which matters most exactly when you are hiding something.
