How to blur part of a screenshot

  1. 1Drop, paste or choose your screenshot above.
  2. 2Click Hide an area, then drag over the part you want to blur. Add as many areas as you need.
  3. 3Copy the image or download it as a PNG.

Tips

  • Blur works well for faces, background clutter and anything you just want out of focus.
  • For passwords, API keys and account numbers, switch the hide style to Solid. Heavy blur on short text can sometimes be guessed back.
  • Each blurred area can be moved and resized afterwards, and Undo works for every step.

Questions

Is my screenshot uploaded anywhere?+

No. RioShot edits the image inside your browser, on your own device. There is no server that receives or stores your picture.

Can someone un-blur my screenshot?+

The blur is drawn into the saved pixels, so the original text is not in the file. Short text under a light blur can still be guessed, so use the Solid style for anything secret.

Can I blur more than one area?+

Yes. Add as many areas as you like, and move or resize each one afterwards.

Does it work on my phone?+

Yes. RioShot runs in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone.

Is it really free?+

Yes. There is no account, no watermark and no limit on how many images you edit. RioShot is supported by sponsors.
