Why use Aback Images for blur faces

Your images are decoded, edited and encoded inside this browser tab by Web Workers. Nothing is uploaded to a server.

Every format

Frequently asked questions
Is face detection perfect?
No detector finds every face, especially small, turned or partly hidden ones. Always review the boxes: you can add, move, resize and delete them before exporting.
Are my images uploaded anywhere?
No. Processing happens inside your browser with WebAssembly and Web Workers. The site only downloads the app code and codecs; your files never leave your device. You can confirm this with the live upload counter on the tool, or in your browser's network panel.
Can I process many files at once?
Yes. Drop a whole selection or folder. Files are processed in parallel on several worker threads, each result can be downloaded on its own, and everything can be saved as one ZIP.
Is it free? Is there a file limit or watermark?
It is free with no account, no watermark and no daily limit. The only limit is your device's memory: very large images (over roughly 100 megapixels) may be refused to keep the tab from crashing.
