How to use
- group.jpgPhoto with people
Add photos and detect faces
- group.jpgMosaic, blur or black box
Pick how to hide each face
- group_masked.jpgAdd missed faces by hand
Save one by one or as a ZIP
Drop photos or click “Choose files” (several at once is fine). “Try a sample” lets you test the steps first.
Faces are detected automatically and shown as boxes on the photo. Switch each box on or off to choose what gets hidden.
Add a box by hand for a missed face. Drag a box to move it, drag its corner to resize, or type exact percentages.
Pick the cover style (mosaic, blur, black fill or solid disc), strength and output format, then click “Export with these settings”. Check the result by eye.
Download photos one by one, or save them all together as a ZIP.
What it does
Face detection stays on your device
Runs Google’s MediaPipe face detection model (Apache-2.0) in your browser. The model is served from this site. Photos and detection results are never sent out. Choose the near model or the far model for small faces.
Check and adjust each box
Switch each detected face on or off. Add a box for a missed area, then move and resize it by drag or by typing percentages. Everything can also be done with the keyboard.
Choice of cover style
Mosaic, blur, black fill or a solid disc. For reliable hiding, use black fill: the original pixels under it are not kept in the output.
Location data is removed too
The output is rebuilt from the pixels on screen, so the original EXIF, GPS location, embedded thumbnail and XMP are not included.
Batch and ZIP
Up to 200 photos per run, saved as one ZIP. Output as JPEG, PNG or WebP; JPEG and WebP quality can be adjusted.
Use cases
- Hide strangers’ faces in a group photo before posting it on a blog or social media
- Hide people’s faces in photos used in internal reports or documents
- Blur shoppers or visitors in store or facility photos before publishing
- Process many photos at once and receive them together as one ZIP

Limits & notes
- Up to 50 MB and 40 megapixels per photo, 200 photos per run, and 500 boxes per photo.
- Face detection runs on a copy scaled to 1024 px on the long side. Boxes are applied at the original size.
- Automatic detection misses some faces. Always check the exported photos by eye.
- Text in the picture (number plates, name tags, signs) is not hidden automatically.
- Works on smartphones. For large or many photos, a PC is recommended because processing takes longer.
Privacy & safety
Reading, face detection, hiding, export and ZIP creation all happen in your browser. Photos and detection results are never sent to a server. The detection model and WebAssembly files are also loaded from this site.

Related tools
Image Editor
Annotate a screenshot or photo, reliably hide what must not be seen, tune the colours (black-and-white included) and export — on one screen. Made for how-to guides, bug reports and social posts. Your image is never uploaded and exports carry no metadata.
Share Safe
Before you hand a file over, see what is hiding in it — listed per file with severity — and get a safe copy with everything removable removed. The copy is re-checked afterwards, and whatever is left comes with manual steps. Files are never uploaded.
EXIF & GPS Remover
Remove the location (GPS), camera details and timestamps embedded in your photos without touching image quality. Inspect what was inside and verify the result — all in your browser.
Batch Image Resizer
Resizing is free: drop a batch of images and resize them by width, longest edge, box crop and more. To change pixel dimensions, type the width or long edge in px. Make several sizes (say 320, 640 and 1280) from each image in one go, then copy ready-made srcset HTML. Your images are never uploaded.
Crop, Pad & Canvas
Drag to crop, then rotate, straighten and add padding on one screen. Export straight to the recommended X header or Instagram size. Your image is never uploaded.
Image Merge & Contact Sheet
Put your images in order and merge them into one picture: stacked, side by side, in a grid or as a contact sheet. The output size is shown before you create it, and images never leave your device.
