At a glance

JPG suits photos: JPEG is the most widely used lossy format for still images and works best for photographs.; Source: developer.mozilla.org, checked 2026-11
Not for sharp text: Lossy compression can give poor results on content that needs sharp edges, like diagrams and text. Use PNG for screenshots.; Source: developer.mozilla.org, checked 2026-11
No transparency: JPEG doesn't support an alpha channel, so any transparent parts are filled with white in the download.; Source: developer.mozilla.org, checked 2026-11
Quality setting: The JPG download is saved at quality 0.92 on a scale of 0 to 1.

Blur JPG image: what to know

This page starts the blur image for this case. For every option and how to use it, see the blur image.

Saving the blurred photo

Each time a JPG is saved, its lossy compression is applied again. Blur from the original photo rather than from a copy you've already edited and saved several times.

If you're blurring text or a screenshot, switch the format to PNG before you download: edges stay crisp and a solid box stays perfectly solid.

Questions

How can I blur a JPG image?

Choose the photo above. It starts on Whole image with JPG as the format. Drag over parts of the photo to blur only those, then download.

How do I blur an already taken photo?

Open it here from your camera roll or computer. The tool edits any photo you already have and saves a new copy; your original stays as it was.

Does it remove the photo's location?

Yes. The download is a new image drawn from the pixels on screen, so EXIF details such as GPS location aren't copied over.
