About Blur Faces - HiddenFace
Protect your privacy and your loved ones before sharing photos and videos on social media. HiddenFace uses AI to automatically detect faces in your photos and videos, letting you blur, pixelate, or cover them with emojis before posting online. NEW IN v2.0: • Video face tracking — detect and cover faces across entire videos • Bulk photo processing — process multiple photos at once • Camera capture — take a photo and blur faces instantly • Timeline editing — trim, split, and keyframe video segments • Undo/redo — multi-level undo in photo and video editors KEY FEATURES: • AI-powered face detection for photos and video (YOLOv8, on-device) • Multiple cover options: blur, pixelate, emoji, solid color • Manual area placement for custom coverage • Multi-track timeline with pinch-to-zoom • Face clustering across bulk imports • 100% on-device processing • Your photos and videos never leave your device WORKS WHERE YOU ARE: • In Photos, tap Share → "Cover faces with HiddenFace" and the photo opens ready to cover • Use the Shortcuts app to cover every face in a photo automatically, without opening HiddenFace WHY USE HIDDENFACE? Facial recognition companies scrape billions of photos from social media. Unlike passwords, your facial data cannot be changed once leaked. Protect yourself and your family. EASY TO USE: • Tap faces to toggle cover on/off • Long press to change cover type • Add custom areas manually • Pinch to zoom the video timeline PRIVACY FIRST: All processing happens on your device. We never see, store, or upload your photos or videos. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
What’s new
Version 2.4.0 · Updated October 21, 2026
What's new in 2.4 • Try it before you pay: open video, camera and batch editing for free, cover every face and check the result. You only pay when you export a video or a whole batch. • Not just faces: HiddenFace also covers card numbers, IBANs, emails, phone numbers and the machine-readable lines of passports and ID cards. • Two new effects, colour mosaic and crystals, with adjustable intensity, plus a rectangle or oval shape for each face. • Your photo stays in view: masks now live in a bar below it, and the editor responds faster. • Straight from Photos: tap Share, then "Cover faces with HiddenFace". The Shortcuts action covers faces without opening the app. • Blur now hides the face completely, and emoji stay sharp on large faces.
