User Reviews

Users like the app's ease of use and flexible blur options, especially for photos, and the free version is surprisingly functional. However, reliability is a major problem: frequent crashes during export, inability to save/download edits, and degraded video quality after blurring. Paid unlocks often do not resolve issues and can leave watermarks or distortions; some payment methods (like Visa) are not accepted. The UI/UX is criticized, with reports of outdated visuals, lack of support, and confusing workflows. Overall, the app works in theory but is inconsistent and unstable in practice.

Pros

Easy to use with a no-frills interface
Multiple blur options and the ability to blur specific areas or frames
Free version is functional and easy to save
Blur output looks good when it works
Effective for blurring photos

Cons

Frequent crashes during export and overall instability
Cannot save or download edited videos; export progress stalls
Heavy watermark and paid unlocks do not fix quality; distortions
Payment issues or limited payment methods (e.g., Visa not accepted)
Poor UI/UX and lack of support; visuals don't match App Store images

I love the different ways I can blur on this app.

They made it full proof. Even I can do it.

I just went through 5 apps trying to find a normal blur tool. Every app wanted you to get a premium version, and none of them had just a basic blur tool. THANK YOU for just doing what i needed
