Questions
How do I blur more than one face?+
Add Blur Image for each extra face, set Apply to Inside, and drag its frame over the face. Every step has its own frame.
Can a blurred face be un-blurred?+
Not from the saved file: the original pixels are replaced. Use a high strength so no detail is left to guess from.
Should I blur or pixelate?+
Both hide a face. Blur looks softer; Pixelate Image gives the blocky look often used on the news.
Are my photos uploaded?+
No. The face is blurred in your browser, and the photo never leaves your device.
