DualBlur
Read full descriptionHide full description
Blur faces and bodies in photos and videos, automatically, on your iPhone. Nothing is uploaded. No account. No tracking. BLUR LIBRARY Your photos and videos, right inside the app. Open any of them and DualBlur finds every face and covers it. Turn on body cover and each person's whole outline is hidden too. Then touch up by hand: • Tap a face to leave it visible • Tap anything else — a plate, a sign, a bystander — to cover it • Brush or box over any detail, and pinch to zoom in on the smallest ones • Every edit is saved as a project, so you can come back to it later • Play the blurred video before you export it, and pick which people stay visible for the whole clip • Save a new copy to Photos in one tap, or share it straight from the app Video export checks every single frame. Audio stays untouched unless you turn on the voice changer. VOICE CHANGER Disguise voices while you record, or in any library video: Deep, Deeper, High, Squeaky, or Robot. Picture and sound stay in sync. DUAL CAMERA Record the front and back cameras at the same time, with a live composite preview. Drag the picture-in-picture anywhere, pinch to resize, swap which camera fills the screen with a double tap. COVER STYLES • Solid — opaque cover, nothing left to recover. Strongest. • Emoji — a bear, a cat, anything, on the same opaque plate. • Pixelate and Gaussian — re-anchored and dithered every frame so AI restoration tools can't undo them. Each style shows its privacy rating right in Settings. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Every detection and every cover happens on your device. The app makes no network calls of its own. Blurred copies carry no location or camera metadata from the original. FREE AND PRO Free: dual-camera recording at 1080p with automatic face cover in Solid, Pixelate, or Gaussian. DualBlur Pro adds Blur Library (photos and videos), full-body cover, Emoji, voice changer, 2K/4K recording, 60 fps, and face labels. • Monthly or yearly subscription, or • One-time lifetime purchase Bought DualBlur before it went free?

Manage or cancel any time in your App Store account settings.
