## Description

Swipe over a face, an address, a license plate — whatever you'd rather not show. Trying it on your own photo is free. Saving is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.

Pick a photo. Swipe over what you don't want seen. Save. That's it.

You're about to post a photo of your kid, and their face is in it.
You're about to send a screenshot, and your address is sitting right there.

Swipe Blur does that one job and nothing else.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick a photo
2. Swipe over what you want hidden
3. Save it back to your photos

Nothing to learn. No account. No setup screens.

WHAT PEOPLE USE IT FOR
- Faces, before a photo goes on social media
- Addresses, phone numbers and names in a screenshot
- Chat threads, notifications and order history, where only a few words need to go
- The license plate on a car you're selling
- House numbers, mail and paperwork in listing photos
- The part of a document, receipt or ID card you'd rather not show

WHAT IT DOES
- Blurs exactly where your finger goes, and nowhere else
- Brush size you can change, for small text or wide areas
- Undo one stroke, or clear everything and start over
- Reaches the very edge of the photo (the space around the photo takes your finger too)
- Saves straight into your photo library

WHY A BLUR INSTEAD OF A BLACK BOX
A black rectangle announces that something was hidden. A blur lets the photo still look like a photo.

PRICING
- Free to download. Choosing a photo, swiping to blur it, and checking the result are all free.
- Only saving the edited photo to your Photos library requires a one-time in-app purchase.
- It's a one-time purchase, not a subscription. Nothing is charged after that.
- No ads. No watermark on your saved photos.
- You can confirm everything is properly hidden on your own photo before you buy.
- If you bought this app back when it was a paid app, saving stays available to you at no extra cost.

PRIVACY
- Your photos never leave your iPhone. There is no developer server.
- The network is used only to buy the in-app purchase or restore it.
- No analytics, no ad SDKs, no tracking of any kind.
- Add-only access to your photo library. It never reads, changes or deletes the photos you already have.
- No account, no sign-in, no email address.

REQUIREMENTS
- iPhone, iOS 17.0 or later
- English and Japanese, switchable inside the app

BEFORE YOU START
- You blur by hand. There is no automatic face detection.
- No mosaic or pixel tiles, no black-out boxes, no video editing.
- Very large photos may be scaled down to 4096 pixels on the long edge.

Swipe over what you want hidden. That is all this app does.
