What you get

You can share screenshots with private details blurred or pixelated.

Screenshot Blur gives you a quick way to hide sensitive details before you send a screenshot to someone else. You can blur or pixelate passwords, API tokens, email addresses, wallet addresses, customer data, and internal URLs while leaving the rest of the image visible.

You keep using the built-in macOS screenshot shortcut. Hold Option during capture, and you can edit the image immediately rather than find and reopen the saved file. That makes it easier to prepare screenshots for documentation, support replies, internal chats, or social posts without switching to a different capture tool.

Your edits stay on your Mac, so you don’t need to upload screenshots to an online editor or create an account. When you’re finished, you can save the cleaned-up image, copy it for pasting, or do both in one step.

  • Keep screenshots local

Best for
