Blur Photo & Mosaic Downloads & RevenueBlur Photo & Mosaic – MakeBlur · App Store

MakeBlur is an iPhone photo editor that blurs photos and adds mosaic after you take them. Pick a picture, and the app finds the person in it, keeps them sharp and makes the background soft — a portrait-style look without a DSLR or desktop software. Need to hide something instead? Pixelate faces or any area in a few taps.

WHAT THIS APP DOES

The iPhone Camera can't add background blur to a photo you've already taken. MakeBlur can. Use this app to blur photo backgrounds, blur a whole image, blur or pixelate faces, or paint blur exactly where you want it. Choose from eight blur and mosaic styles, set the strength, and save the result to your Photos library.

All editing happens on your iPhone. Your photos are never uploaded to a server to be blurred.

HOW TO BLUR A PHOTO ON IPHONE

1. Open MakeBlur and choose a picture from your library, or tap Share on a photo in the Photos app and send it to MakeBlur.
2. Pick what to blur: the background, the full photo, faces, or a manual area.
3. Choose a blur style and drag the slider to set the intensity.
4. Save the edited photo or share it right away.

That's the whole process. No layers, no masking skills, no tutorials.

BLUR AND MOSAIC STYLES

• Gaussian blur – a smooth, even blur for a clean, soft background.
• Bokeh blur – round, lens-like highlights that imitate a portrait lens with shallow depth of field.
• Motion blur – directional streaks that add speed and energy to action shots.
• Ghosting – a doubled, echo-like trail for creative edits.
• Box blur – a flat, uniform softening.
• Pixelate – a mosaic of square pixels to hide details.
• Hexagonal – a honeycomb mosaic effect.
• Crystallize – a faceted, glass-like pattern.

WHERE TO APPLY THE BLUR

• Background – blur the background of a photo while the person stays in focus. Subject detection separates people from the background automatically.
• Full photo – blur the entire image for a soft wallpaper, a dreamy look or a backdrop for text.
• Faces – blur or pixelate faces to hide identities before you post a photo.
• Manual – brush blur onto any area by hand, and restore sharp areas with the eraser. Use it for objects, license plates, screens, documents or anything automatic detection doesn't cover.

WHO IT'S FOR

• iPhone users who took a photo and want a blurred background afterward.
• Portrait shooters who want a sharp subject and a soft background on older iPhones or photos taken without Portrait mode.
• Social media creators who want the subject to stand out in posts, stories and profile pictures.
• Sellers who want to soften a distracting background around a product with the manual brush.
• Anyone who needs to censor faces, license plates or private details before sharing a picture.

WHY PEOPLE USE MAKEBLUR

• It works on photos you already have — you don't need to reshoot in Portrait mode.
• Background blur takes seconds: the app finds the person, you only adjust the strength.
• Eight styles in one place, from a subtle gaussian blur to bold moti
