FileGizmo — Image tools
Blur or pixelate part of an image
Drag over a sensitive image area and blur or pixelate it locally before downloading a flattened copy.
Unlimited edits. No daily tasks. Your work survives a crash. Your file still never leaves.
Add one or more areas, then drag and resize each one on the real image.
Redact permanently replaces the selected pixels in the output; it is not a removable visual overlay. Inspect the result before sharing.
Use precise single-area fallback

Blur or Pixelate Image in three steps
FileGizmo obscures selected areas of a JPG, PNG, or WebP image without uploading it. Add and resize regions over faces, addresses, account numbers, license plates, or other visible details. Choose blur, pixelation, or permanent opaque redaction for each area, then process the image. The result is flattened into a new file for preview and download.
Selections are converted from preview coordinates to source pixels inside a dedicated browser worker, so each effect targets the full-resolution area rather than a small screenshot. Blur and pixelation are visual obscuring methods; use permanent redaction for secrets and a formal source-document workflow for document redaction. These effects do not remove metadata. Strip EXIF data separately, retain the original privately, and zoom into the finished image to confirm every selected detail is unreadable before publishing.

Frequently asked questions
How do I select the area?
Drag directly across the preview; the highlighted rectangle shows the region that will change.
Is pixelation secure document redaction?
No. It flattens visible pixels but is not a substitute for formal redaction of source documents or metadata.
Can I blur more than one area at once?
Yes. Add separate resizable areas and choose an effect for each before processing the flattened output.
Does the image leave my device?
No. Selection, pixel processing, preview, and download stay in the browser.
