Blur & Mosaic

Photos and videos. It follows the face and hides it for you.

Blur & Mosaic hides the faces in your photos and videos. One button finds the faces and covers them, and in video it keeps following each face as it moves. There is no fixing it frame by frame.

For the shot you want to post with someone in it who never asked to be. For the video of your kid you want to send without leaving their face in it. It takes a few taps.

■ What it does

[In video, it follows the face and keeps it covered] ・The cover sticks to the face as it moves ・No frame-by-frame work. Even a long take — just leave it running ・It keeps treating a face as the same person when they turn away, or leave the frame and come back

[It finds the faces for you] ・One button covers every face in the shot ・In video you get a list of everyone who appears, so you choose who to hide and who to leave ・Photos and videos work the same way

[Three ways to hide] ・Blur … soft ・Mosaic … solid ・Emoji … drop an emoji over the face. 1,900 to pick from

[Trace with your finger for everything else] ・Hide more than faces: name plates, documents, a screen in the background ・Change the strength and the brush size as you go ・The eraser brings back anything you covered too much

■ When it helps

・Posting a photo or video on social media ・Sending family a video of your kid with the face hidden ・Taking personal details out of a screenshot ・Removing an address or a name from a listing photo

■ It all happens on your iPhone

Every bit of the hiding runs on your iPhone. Your photos and videos are never sent anywhere. The original is left exactly as it was, and the edited copy is saved separately.
