### 5/5 — The best

*2026-06-11, version 1.5.1*

The best free app to blur photos

### 4/5 — Blur

*2026-06-01, version 1.5.1*

Great app . Very handy . Has good editing options . Sometimes can lag in responding but it does the job . I wish the blur could track the blur during videos .

### 3/5 — 動画編集ができない！！！

*2026-03-20*

1ヶ月ほど前から、動画編集で横向きの動画を編集する場合、編集画面の動画の向きが上下逆さまになってしまいます。

向きがおかしくても編集できるなら問題ないですが、書き出されたものは通常の向きになってるため、モザイクが反転状態でかかってしまいます。

また、モザイク自体の反映も悪く、かけていないはずのところにモザイクがあったり、塗りつぶしたはずの場所にかかっていなかったりします。

とにかく、動画編集が本当にバグってて使い物になりません。

もう1ヶ月以上続いていて困ってます。そろそろ修正お願いします。

修正されないようであれば、返金をアップルを通して申請させていただきます。

### 1/5 — 二日しかつかってない

*2026-02-11*

二日しかアプリ開いてない後壊れた。
まじ雑魚アプリだよ。これ。
急に使えなくなった。私が保存したやつはできるのに、他の方の保存した1部の写真だけ使えなくなるって。差別だよ

### 5/5 — 使いやすい

*2025-03-18*

クイックに思い通りのぼかしが出来るので、非常に使い勝手が良いソフトです。

*2025-02-01, version 1.5.1*

I love the different ways I can blur on this app.

### 5/5 — Get this app!!!

*2025-01-16*

It’s great for posting things when you don’t want something to be seen

### 3/5 — 使い方を忘れた。

*2024-11-24*

撮った写真をぼかすつもりで、下のバーをタップしたら、楽天に‼️
丁度丸いものが並んでてこれをタップすればぼかせるのかと思っていたのに楽天に行った？
そうこうしていたら、操作するアイコンが表示されて、なんとかぼかすことができた。
説明ないから大変。

### 5/5 — Easy to blur

*2024-09-26, version 1.5.1*

They made it full proof. Even I can do it.

### 5/5 — 直観で分かり、使える

*2024-09-25*
