Cover the other kids before you post the group photo

The team photo, the birthday party, the class trip: great shots, except they are full of other people's children. Posting them means exposing kids who are not yours. HideFace finds every face in the picture so you can cover the ones you did not get permission for, and keep your own child in view if you want.

It runs on your computer, so family photos are never uploaded to a server to be scanned. Open a single photo or a whole album, choose who to cover, and export a version that is safe to share.

Frequently asked questions

Can I keep my own child visible and blur only the others?

Yes. Select the faces you have permission to show and HideFace covers everyone else.

Does it work on a whole album at once?

Yes. Drop in a folder and HideFace detects faces in each photo, so you can export the whole batch together.

Are the photos uploaded or scanned online?

No. Detection and covering happen on your computer. Family photos are never uploaded.

Which cover looks best for a friendly photo?

A soft blur or an emoji keeps the photo warm; there are nine styles if you want something stronger.

Can someone un-blur the faces later?

No. The export is flattened into the pixels, so there is no original hiding under the cover.
