Choosing the right effect
Blur softens detail and looks natural for faces and backgrounds. Pixelate turns the area into large squares — the classic “censored” look. Solid box paints the area black and removes the original pixels completely, which is the only reliable way to hide text such as licence plates, addresses or card numbers. Higher strength means a wider blur or bigger squares.
The saved image is a new file with the effects baked in. Photos taken on phones may contain location data in their metadata; the saved copy is redrawn from pixels and does not keep it. Related: image cropper and watermark tool.
