## What is Blur ID?

Blur ID — Privacy protection made simple. Automatically detects and blurs faces, usernames, profile pictures, and sensitive text in your screenshots before you share them.

Perfect for sharing chat conversations, social media posts, or any screenshots while keeping everyone's privacy intact. Works with all your favorite apps — iMessage, Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook, Tinder, Snapchat, and more.

■ What makes it different:

Instead of ugly black bars or pixelated blocks, Blur ID creates clean, natural-looking edits. Profile pictures get replaced with generic avatars, faces are covered with friendly emojis, and usernames are smoothly removed. Your screenshots look polished, not censored.

■ Key features:
- Smart detection of faces, usernames, and profile content
- Clean, natural-looking blur effects and replacements
- Works with popular messaging and social apps
- Completely offline — your images never leave your device

■ Privacy first:
Everything happens directly on your iPhone. No uploading, no cloud processing, no data collection. You can even disable the app's internet access if you want extra peace of mind.

Whether you're sharing funny conversations with friends, posting reviews, or creating content while respecting others' privacy, Blur ID handles the tedious work so you don't have to manually edit every screenshot.

### 5/5 — 有马赛克打码的话 这个软件堪称完美

*2026-07-28*

希望能够快速添加

### 1/5 — 避雷

*2026-03-09*

纯粹骗钱的，根本无法使用，亏我还特意充了一个月的会员……我真的没遇到过更诈骗的。

**Developer response:** 这是一个免费产品，付费只是为了去水印，对产品功能没任何影响，以及你可以申请退款：https://support.apple.com/118223

### 5/5 — 好评，但长截图支持欠佳

*2025-11-03*

长截图稍微长一些，会无法识别打码

**Developer response:** 感谢反馈！因为我在训练模型的时候没有长截图的数据。

### 3/5 — 长图支持不好

*2025-06-19*

如果是多张截图拼接而成的微信聊天记录，几十个头像只能识别四五个

**Developer response:** 模型的训练数据大多数为单屏截图，只有极少量2-3屏的截图，所以很长的图不准是正常的，因为缺乏数据。

### 1/5 — Не работает

*2025-04-15*

Не работает. Оплатила подписку - но воспользоваться невозможно

**Developer response:** К сожалению, у меня возникло некоторое недоумение, поскольку платная версия лишь убирает водяные знаки и не влияет на сам пользовательский опыт. Вы вполне можете решить, стоит ли платить, основываясь на результатах.

### 5/5 — 头像

*2025-04-09*

最开始的橙子和苹果头像不见了吗🙏

**Developer response:** 那个比较主观，换成了比较温和的默认头像。你可以自己改头像的，可以去小红书搜搜看！

### 5/5 — 升到新系统用不了了

*2025-04-05*

作者赶紧修复啊

**Developer response:** 具体是什么问题呢？ 方便给App设置里提供的邮件发一则消息详细说一下吗？

### 3/5 — 怎么使用啊

*2025-03-29*

购买终身会员后，不会用，点开始使用就已经是终身会员，只有一个返回键

### 5/5 — 反馈和咨询

*2025-02-24, version 1.1.8*

1部分场景下，自动打上的码，无法被清除
2 马赛克高斯模糊还会上线吗
3 自动打码后可以允许调节色块大小吗
4 手动打码的色块可以保持同样曲率的圆角吗

### 2/5 — 会员

*2024-11-17*

开通会员为什么看不到会员在哪里
