FAQ

What blur styles can I choose?

The tool offers artistic options including Gaussian, radial, and tilt-shift blur, each giving a different focus and mood.

Can I blur just the background?

Radial and tilt-shift styles let you keep one area sharp while softening the rest, which works well for backgrounds.

Is this different from motion blur?

Yes. This tool covers static blur styles; motion blur adds a directional streak for a sense of movement and is a separate tool.

Do I need to register?

No. It's free, works in your browser, and adds no watermark to your image.

Can I use Blur Effect Tool on mobile?

Yes — ToolHub is fully responsive and works on iPhone, Android, tablets and all modern browsers. No app install needed.
