Let the AI do the blurring

Leave it to AI to accurately blur images while keeping what matters crystal clear. The AI-powered Smart Blur filter will automatically detect the subject of the photo and blur the background to make it stand out. And thanks to the customization sliders, you have full control of how the blur appears on your photo.

Customize the blur to your liking

Easily control how the blur effects look on your image with customization sliders. Adjust the strength of the blur and its fade if necessary. Take advantage of the Blend Modes to play around with the overall look of the filter by darkening, lightening, or even multiplying for a stronger blur.
