### 5/5 — Perfect

Très bonne ap

### 5/5 — perfect

*2026-07-27, version 1.8.0*

did exactly what i need without charging me a dollar

### 4/5 — Mon avis

*2026-07-26*

Franchement c’est incroyable mais on ne peut pas le faire sur les vidéos !!!! 😘🫠😒🥹🎀

### 4/5 — 便利だが改良してほしい点も

*2026-07-20*

・写真サイズが大きいと、モザイクの大きさを最大にしても小さすぎることがある。

・逆に人の顔をボカす時など、大きさを最小にしても、まだ大き過ぎることがある。

・消したい物と消したくない物の境界をうまく設定できないので、シェイプとか投げ縄の内側を全部ボカす機能がほしい。

### 5/5 — 🤔 y está buena la aplicación

*2026-06-18, version 1.7.2*

Me parece muy buena calidad

### 4/5 — No permite editar

*2026-05-28, version 1.7.2*

Satisface lo que buscaba. Lo único que no me permite es editar lo que ya he hecho. Tengo acceso a todas las fotos que he editado, pero no sé para qué si no puedo editarlas. Tengo que comenzar desde cero nuevamente si quiero hacerle una modificación.

### 4/5 — ちょっと残念

*2026-05-26*

ぼかしの種類は豊富ですが
所謂ペン的な要素や円的な囲いが
ないので指でなぞりのみ。
そのため顔をモザイク処理を施そうにもカタチが不揃いでイビツ。
ペンもタップした部分の外れに
出てくれば描きやすいし、
横・縦棒の図形モザイクもあれば
バリエーション豊かになれば
使いやすい、と感じた

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-05-16*

Alot

### 3/5 — Avis

*2026-04-11*

Le site est bien mais il y a trop de pub et pas assez de choix pour flouter.
