Draw blur zones manually by dragging anywhere on the image. Each zone is independently resizable, drag the corner handles to adjust size, drag the body to reposition, and click the red × button to remove. You can have as many zones as you need.
Choose between a smooth Gaussian blur effect or a hard-edged pixelate effect. Both support Rectangle and Ellipse shapes so you can precisely cover faces, licence plates, addresses, or any other detail that needs to be hidden. Adjust the intensity slider from subtle to heavy.
