Censor image online
Use Redacted to censor part of an image before posting, sending, or publishing it. Cover anything private with a solid box, blur, pixelation, or an emoji.
Common reasons to censor an image
- Hide a person's face in a group photo.
- Cover usernames, handles, or profile photos in screenshots.
- Remove addresses, tracking numbers, or payment details.
- Hide license plates, signs, or location clues.
How to censor an image
- Open the image in Redacted.
- Select the part you want to censor.
- Pick a mask: black box, pixelate, blur, or emoji.
- Repeat for any other sensitive parts.
- Download the censored copy.
Which censor style should you use?
A black box is the strongest option because it fully covers the selected pixels. Pixelation is useful for faces and casual screenshots. Blur looks softer, but use it heavily if the hidden detail matters.
