Quick answers
Frequently asked questions
Will face blurring detect every person?
No. Detection can miss small, turned, obscured, or unusual faces. Inspect the exported image before relying on it for privacy.
Does blurring remove original face pixels from the export?
The exported image contains the processed pixels. Keep the unedited source private and verify each face is sufficiently obscured.
