About Mosaic Blur: Pixelate Photos
Just trace over what to hide. Zoom in and trace, too. This tool puts a pixel mosaic only where you trace. Faces, names, addresses, phone numbers, license plates, nameplates, numbers on a driver's license or ID card: anything in a picture or screenshot you'd rather not show, you can easily hide by tracing over it with your finger. Instead of blacking it out or painting over it, you can mask it with a mosaic and protect your privacy and personal data. Instead of a soft blur, it hides things with a clean, pixelated mosaic. Even small details and text can be traced after zooming in. GREAT FOR • Tracing over names and profile pictures to hide them before sending a screenshot of a chat • Tracing over the faces of children or friends to hide them before posting on social media • Tracing over license plates, nameplates or an address that appears in a photo • Tracing over numbers on a driver's license or other ID to cover them HOW TO USE 1. Trace over the areas you want to hide with your finger. The mosaic appears only where you trace. 2. For small details, zoom in with the “Zoom” slider. Zooming in switches to “Move”, so move the photo into position, then tap “Pixelate” and trace. 3. If you make a mistake, tap “Undo”. When you're done, tap “Save”. FEATURES • Works on iPad, too. • The mosaic is applied only where you trace. • Zoom in up to 8x to easily hide even tiny text with your finger. • No ads and no extra purchases. • Lightweight: the app is only about 3 MB, so it barely uses any space on your iPhone or iPad.
