About Blur

Blur Image runs entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas 2D API — the same rendering engine your browser uses to draw every website. No upload, no signup, no watermark. Your image never leaves your device.

What is Blur best used for?

  • Prep product photos for e-commerce (Shopify, Etsy, Amazon).
  • Reformat photos for social media aspect ratios.
  • Clean up screenshots before sharing them with clients.
  • Prepare images for print with the right dimensions and color profile.

Frequently asked questions

How does Blur Image work in the browser?

Blur Image uses the HTML5 Canvas 2D API — the same rendering engine every web browser ships with. Your image is decoded into a pixel buffer, transformed in memory, and re-encoded to PNG or JPEG when you download. No server involved.

Which formats can I blur?

Blur Image accepts PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, and BMP inputs. Output defaults to PNG (lossless) or JPEG (smaller size) depending on the operation.

Will Blur Image lose quality?

Blur Image preserves pixel data exactly when the target format is lossless (PNG, WebP-lossless). Lossy targets (JPEG) accept a quality trade for smaller size.

What's the maximum image size Blur Image can handle?

Blur Image handles images up to about 50-megapixels on a typical laptop (roughly 8000×6000). Above that, browser memory becomes the bottleneck.

Is Blur Image safe for private photos?

Yes — nothing uploads. Your image is decoded, transformed, and encoded entirely in browser memory. Close the tab and there's no trace anywhere.
