A stranger can drop your dating photo into a reverse image search and be reading your LinkedIn a second later. Blurbot returns a picture that still reads as you to a person, without carrying the fine detail a matcher keys on.
From your library. It never leaves your phone — there is no server to send it to.
Resolution is collapsed and rebuilt, and grain is put back. What survives is what a person reads a face by; what's destroyed is what an index fingerprints it by.
Press and hold for the original, let go for the version you'd post. You decide where the line sits, on your own face, before anything is uploaded anywhere.
Anyone whose face is on a profile a stranger can see. Dating apps are the obvious case. So is anyone who has been found once already and would rather it not happen twice.
No. Every pixel of processing happens on your device. Blurbot has no account, no login, no analytics and no server to upload to — which is the only version of this claim worth making.
That is the whole design problem, and why press-and-hold exists. A photo nobody recognizes is useless on a profile. You judge the tradeoff yourself before you post it.
No, and anyone promising that is selling something. Matchers improve. Blurbot strips the detail today's ones lean on and raises the cost of finding you. It is not an invisibility cloak and we will not describe it as one.
Nothing.
Blurbot reduces the chance a reverse image search links a photo back to you. It cannot remove images already published elsewhere, and no tool can promise you are unfindable.
