Frequently asked questions
Can I blur multiple faces?
Yes. Add as many blur zones as needed. Each zone can be moved and resized independently.
What is the difference between Gaussian and Pixelate?
Gaussian creates a smooth diffuse blur. Pixelate creates a mosaic effect. Both obscure identifying features.
Are faces detected automatically?
Zones must be placed manually, giving you precise control over exactly which areas are blurred.
