Frequently asked questions

Are the faces really removed from the file?

Yes. The pixels inside each detected face are rewritten, so the saved copy no longer contains the original face. Your source file stays untouched on your device; nothing is uploaded at any point.

Why was one face not detected?

The detector is trained on faces turned towards the camera. A head seen from the side, a very small face far in the background or one partly hidden can be missed, and a single photo offers no motion the tool could follow. Check the result, and if a face sits too close to the edge of the covered area, switch coverage to generous and run it again.

What files can I use here?

Reads JPG, PNG, WebP and GIF. As many files at once as you like.

What do I get back?

You get JPG · PNG · WebP · GIF.

Does the file lose quality?

The picture is drawn again and compressed again. Sharp edges and flat colour surfaces show it first; a photo usually survives it without anyone noticing.

When does it not work?

The first run downloads a small model to your device. After that it works offline.

Are camera details like location removed?

Yes. The picture is redrawn from its pixels, so EXIF data — camera model, date and GPS position — does not survive the trip. That is a side effect worth knowing before you share a photo.
