Frequently asked questions
Can I undo a brush stroke?
Yes. Use Undo to remove recent strokes, or Clear Pixelation to remove all painted areas.
Which format should I download?
JPG is suitable for regular photographs. Choose PNG when you need lossless output or want to preserve transparency.
When should you pixelate an image?
Pixelation is useful when a photo or screenshot contains details that should not remain clearly readable, such as faces, license plates, names, addresses or account information. The selected-area brush lets you apply the effect only where needed while preserving the rest of the image.
Choosing the pixel size
Larger blocks hide more visual detail, while smaller blocks preserve more of the original shape. For privacy-sensitive information, inspect the result carefully and increase the pixel size when characters or facial details remain recognizable. A larger brush can cover broad regions quickly, while a smaller brush is better around edges.
Pixelation versus blur
Pixelation creates a block-based effect, while blur softens details by blending nearby pixels. Both can be useful for privacy or creative editing, but they have different visual styles. If you prefer a smoother result, try the Blur Image tool and compare the output before sharing.
