Pixelate: Blur Face & Mosaic

Nothing is uploaded. Face detection, mosaic and blur all run on your iPhone — offline, no account. And once you export, what you covered is gone from the file for good.

Nothing you open here ever leaves your iPhone. No server, no upload, no account, no sign-in. Face detection and every effect run entirely on your device, so it works in airplane mode.

And what you hide stays hidden. On export, the effect is written permanently into the pixels of the new file. The covered area is gone from the image data — it cannot be peeled back, sharpened or recovered by anyone who receives the photo.

ONE TAP, EVERY FACE COVERED On-device face detection finds the faces in your photo. Tap once and all of them are covered. Tap any face to leave it visible — keep yourself in the shot and cover the strangers behind you.

COVER ANYTHING, NOT JUST FACES • Freehand brush with adjustable size • Rectangle and oval selection • Magnifier and zoom for precise edges • Undo, redo and reset at any point

Built for the second before you hit send: the plate in a car listing, house numbers and street signs, ID cards, bank cards, an address on a letter, documents, tattoos, chat screenshots and children's faces.

FIVE WAYS TO COVER • Mosaic — the classic, and the one people expect • Pixelate • Gaussian blur • Solid fill • Emoji and stickers Mix them in a single photo: mosaic on a face, a solid block over a card number. Effect strength is adjustable, so you can keep it subtle or make it absolute.

YOUR OWN WATERMARK Add your own text or your own logo. Tile it diagonally across the whole photo, or place it in the center or a corner. Drag, scale, rotate and set the opacity.

METADATA REMOVED EXIF and GPS data are stripped on export by default. Covering a face does little if the file still carries the exact coordinates of your home.

EXPORT Save straight to Photos or send it through the share sheet. Optionally export a smaller copy.

Photos only — there is no video editing.
