By Ever had a weird person photo-bomb your family pictures? Or has your nephew decided that wearing swear word shirts is appropriate birthday party attire? There can be many reasons why you might need to crop part of a photo. We’ve already picked up Portrait mode, a useful feature for blurring the background, but blurring an image is another matter and can be very handy in the future.
How to blur part of an image on iPhone
Unfortunately, Apple’s photo editing software doesn’t have the features to blur a specific part of the photo. That means you need to download an app from the App Store. Thankfully, I’ve downloaded and tried a few completely free apps that I find to be the easiest to use and most effective. Blurfoto is a great app for its simplicity and ease of use. Blur Photo Effect Background is another great app specially designed for blur effects. I’ll show you how to use them below.

And this is how you blur only part of your image! These apps are very similar but produce a slightly different opacity and offer slightly different customization options. Try to decide which one you prefer either. Remember, they’re both completely free, so you’ll never have to emphasize a photo flaw ever again!
There is no blurring tool on the iPhone, but there are a few apps that offer this functionality. One option is the Camera+ app, which offers a blur tool that you can use to soften the focus of an image. Another option is the Afterfocus app, which allows you to create a blur effect around a specific object in an image.
There are a few different ways to blur out part of a picture. One way is to use a blur filter in a photo editing program. This will soften the edges of the object you want to blur. Another way is to use a mask. A mask is a layer in a photo editing program that allows you to hide certain parts of the image. You can then use a blur filter on the masked area to blur it out. Finally, you can also use a technique called “layer masking.” This involves creating a second layer of the image, and then blurring it out. You can then merge the two layers, and the blurred layer will be hidden behind the non-blurred layer.
There are a few ways to blur a picture on your iPhone for free. One way is to use the camera app. To do this, open the camera app and select the picture you want to blur. Tap the blur button in the toolbar and select the type of blur you want to use. Another way to blur a picture on your iPhone is to use the keyboard. To do this, open the keyboard and type the letter “F” followed by a number. This will open the keyboard shortcuts menu. Tap the blur button and select the type of blur you want to use.
