## What is Auto Video Blur?

AI finds the faces and text in your video and blurs or pixelates them. Pick a video and tap what to hide, with no need to mark areas frame by frame. For a moving license plate or name tag, draw a box around it and the blur follows it.

Blur everyone in the shot, or only the people you choose (saving with chosen faces is Pro). Hide faces and personal details before you post to social media.

Auto blur and saving are free, with no logo or watermark. All detection and editing happens on your iPhone, and your videos are never uploaded to a server.

GREAT FOR
• Blurring other kids' faces in field day or recital videos before sharing them
• Blurring only the people who prefer not to be shown (Pro)
• Blurring strangers in travel vlogs and street footage, even in profile or from behind
• Hiding text on camera: name tags, house numbers, addresses, license plates, signs
• Boxing a moving plate or name tag so the blur follows it
• Hiding names and messages in screen recordings
• Blurring only the background so people stand out (Pro)

WAYS TO HIDE

■ Automatic AI detection
Finds faces, eyes (cover just the eyes), mouths, people (full body) and text (signs, plates, on-screen text). Choose All to filter the whole video. Detection runs on every frame, so the blur follows people and camera movement.

■ Profiles and backs of heads
Choose "Everyone + backs" and heads seen from behind, in profile or far away are estimated from body pose and hidden too. Free.

■ Choose People to Hide
Blur selected faces while keeping others visible. Selecting and previewing are free; saving is Pro. If the same person shows up in another scene, confirm and add that face too. Scenes awaiting a check keep every face blurred.

■ Track a moving object (Manually select blur area)
Drag on the preview to draw a box that stays hidden from start to finish. Switch it to "Track" and it follows what you boxed, even where auto-detection can't. If it loses track, the app flags that part so you can adjust the box and retry. Saving is free with 1 tracked box; 2 or more is Pro (setup and preview are always free).

LOOK AND FEEL

■ 35 ways to hide (filters)
Blur, Pixelate, Frosted Glass, LED Dots, Motion Blur, Sparkle, Hexagon, ASCII, Painting, Hologram and more. Adjust the strength with a slider.

■ Stickers that follow faces (49 types)
Black or white squares, or emoji like smileys, sunglasses, animals and hearts. They follow each face and can be resized.

■ Fine-tuning
• Padding: widen the hidden area
• Edge blur: soften the edges
• Invert area: hide everything except what was detected (Pro)
• Multiple targets at once, e.g. faces and text (Pro)

FREE VS. PRO EDITION
Free: auto blur of faces, eyes, mouths, people and text, Everyone + backs, 17 filters, 17 stickers, Manually select blur area, Track (save with 1 box) and Trim (with ads).

FAQ
Q. Are my videos sent over the internet?
A. No. Detection and editing happen on your iPhone.

Q. What if something isn't hidden automatically?
A. Add a box with "Manually select blur area". Small or dark faces are harder to detect, so check the preview.

Q. Can it hide license plates and text on signs?
A. Yes. Choose "Text" as the target, or turn on "Also blur text" to hide it together with faces. If it's missed, such as on a moving car, box it and switch to "Track".

### 5/5 — 手軽で良いです

*2026-10-23*

手軽に使えて、使いやすいアプリです

### 2/5 — Extremely Slow Video Export Needs Improvement

*2026-10-11*

The app takes far too long to export videos. Even a video that is only 1 minute long can take around 10 minutes to export, which is very frustrating.

Please optimize the video processing and export speed. After editing, videos should export quickly, just like they do in other video editing apps. Faster exports would significantly improve the user experience. Please fix this issue as soon as possible.

最新のバージョン 4.0 で、モザイクをかける人を選べるようになりました。
編集画面の「モザイクをかける顔」で「選んだ顔だけ」を押すと、動画に映る顔の一覧が出ます。隠したい人を選ぶと、その人だけにモザイクがかかります。選んだ顔だけを隠した動画を保存するには Pro 版が必要ですが、顔の選択と仕上がりの確認は無料でお試しいただけます。
