I have used this app for some time an I’m very happy with the results. I do think it’s Time for some app upgrades like blur filters, ways to modify your blur effect instead of one standard blur which you can decrease or increase the effect. Blur color background changes could be a start, blue, green red blurred backgrounds. Or a pixelated blur look instead of a faded smoke look. Bokeh blurs, the filters can be endless, it’s time for some new ideas before this good app is outdated by some other start up app. Keep up the good work! ### 3/5 — Josh *2020-02-22, version 1.5* Good ### 3/5 — Hard to get a good outline using finger *2019-10-15, version 1.5* If you are using your finger to create the outline, you won’t get a good line and you there is no tool option to help. Would be good if they can have like a pen tool to help. ### 2/5 — Destroyed quality *2019-07-20, version 1.5* It destroyed the quality of the photo:(( ### 1/5 — Save *2019-05-12, version 1.5* When I go to save it’s not available. ### 2/5 — Come scegliere le foto dalla galleria *2019-04-22, version 1.5* Qualcuno mi sa dire come poter entrare nella galleria per poter scegliere le foto? Uso un iPhone e l’unica opzione che ho per scegliere le foto e’ da l’unica schermata (momenti) che mi propone L’app. Grazie ### 4/5 — It works *2019-01-31, version 1.5* I tried it out thinking it would look blurred out but it took me a couple tries to figure it out. At first I didn’t know where the save button was then I found it. My feeling in a emoji is-😐 ### 3/5 — Toooooo muchh *2019-01-30, version 1.5* Ok so this app words really good and I used it for many photos. It was very useful. But the only thing that I don’t like, is that after every minute an ad comes on. It’s not even different ads, it’s always the same exact ad. ### 1/5 — Very bad app *2019-01-12, version 1.5* Bad app, a lot of adds ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Só salva se pagar *2026-02-20, version 2.2* Horrível ### 1/5 — App pago *2024-12-14, version 2.2* NÃO TEM opção de salvar sem pagar ### 1/5 — Not free *2024-01-22, version 2.2* You gta pay ### 1/5 — Платное приложение *2023-08-29* Невозможно пользоваться приложением бесплатно ### 1/5 — Useless *2023-07-22* Don’t waste your time on exploring in it ### 1/5 — What a horrible app!

I just downloaded a little while ago but so far it’s great. If there isn’t already… I would suggest auto blur where it just automatically makes your background blur. Sorry I haven’t found all the buttons on this app but yeah. I usually use CapCut for my blur backgrounds.. but this is really good. I like how you can change the intensity level low or high on this app. I haven’t experienced any ads yet and I don’t know if there is any ads on this app. Whoever made this app…. You are great at making this app and very detailed!!! This helped me a lot with my backgrounds and blur! Great job! 😊😊 ### 5/5 — Awesome *2021-11-14, version 1.7* Love it ! ### 5/5 — Works like a charm *2020-01-13, version 1.5* This app does its job completely. With any photo you have, you can blur out any part of the photo. I highly recommend this app:) ### 5/5 — Mükemmel *2019-10-12, version 1.5* Fotoğraf kalitesini biraz düşürmesine rağmen süper bir uygulama, bedava! 😃 ### 5/5 — Good app *2019-10-03, version 1.5* LOVE it ### 5/5 — Blur photo background *2018-06-21, version 1.5* This app is good but plz remove the adz adz is so irrited ### 5/5 — Good job *2018-04-17, version 1.5* I like that ### 5/5 — Great app! *2017-07-12, version 1.4* Life saver :) ### 5/5 — Simple and does just what it claims to do *2016-10-27, version 1.3* I had no issue in blurry the background of a picture taken of my son. Enlarged the picture and blur what you don't want seen. Simple to use. Not sure why the poor ratings from other users. It's a free app that does just what it claims to do. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
