Blur Photo Effect Background Reviews

by MsRawr

BlurPhotoEffectBackground is atrocious. When you load an image, it flickers in and out of view before going blank. For most of the ones I started with, it would disappear unless I touched the image, which would then blur parts that I didn’t want blurred. If you try to zoom in or out, the image would flash (holy epilepsy trigger?!) like a strobe and only rains visible for the first edit you make before disappearing again. This ish ain’t worth the obnoxious ads it requires. Go elsewhere.

I love BlurPhotoEffectBackground! I usually use it for thumbnails on my videos or editing pictures. But most of the editing tools are only for premium, if Blur Photo could have more of the tools for non-premium people that would be great! Overall I recommend getting BlurPhotoEffectBackground if you are a editor or want to be editor!

I needed a simple but effective blur tool for a photo with addresses on it, and this worked like a charm. I was able to blur my photos and adjust how "blurred" I wanted them--completely or "partially" with the outline of the letters still somewhat visible.

It was a bit tricky to figure out how to adjust the strength of the blurring tool, but once I learned my way around the "Effects" tab, all worked fine. I appreciate how the number and frequency of ads is acceptable and non-intrusive. You can use BlurPhotoEffectBackground without too much interference from long ads.

In order to save the first photo I edited with BlurPhotoEffectBackground, I have to give this review. I have not used BlurPhotoEffectBackground much, but so far so good. As most free apps, there are lots of advertisements, but no issues with the function of BlurPhotoEffectBackground itself. Four stars for now, as I didn't have a chance to fully use BlurPhotoEffectBackground before being required to review it.

This photo editing app isn’t the best, my friend and I were looking at the reviews and we saw, “Great App!” “Amazing performance!” But it isn’t actually that good. The blur does not at all look natural, it looks fake and it doesn’t mix/fit with the photos that you blur out. Maybe it could work for somebody that finds it more useful to me, but I found this a bit misleading.

This is such a great and easy tool for me to edit my photos without having to spend a bunch of money on a photoshop software. Worked really well and super easy to use. Not many options for non-plus members but it doesn’t bother me because the basic blur is all I need. :) also no watermarks!!

Use BlurPhotoEffectBackground today for the first time and it worked way better than expected. After using a previous blur app my expectations were not that high, however BlurPhotoEffectBackground is absolutely amazing, super simple and effective with many useful features.

I was a little hesitant to get BlurPhotoEffectBackground because there were so many reviews about people saying it doesn’t work. But then I read the developers reply to those comments and it said there is an X in the top left corner. And when I click the X, lo and behold I can use the blur feature as much as I want at no charge. Ads are minimal and IMO well worth the 30 seconds for a few pics. Great free product!!

I've tried multiple apps to blur out parts of photos and this one worked great! It has multiple blur effects you can use without having to purchase the premium version! It didn't change the quality of my photos and gave me the tools I needed! Great app!

BlurPhotoEffectBackground is awesome! But can there be a way to adjust the intensity, instead of just how fast its layered? Because when you put the setting on the least opauge one you can still layer it to the most opauge option, and I want there to be a way to set a maximum amount of blur, so it’s not too intense.

I had to search for BlurPhotoEffectBackground. I tried four others before this. All the other apps had several ads that occurred randomly. Making it very hard to make it through an entire picture. BlurPhotoEffectBackground however does not have spontaneous ads and is very easy to navigate.

Easy to install, easy to use. Easy to them save photos back to your “Photos” or wherever you store. Also has some editing features, not dissimilar to what you already have on your phone, but some of the filters are different and quite nice. My only real suggestion to them/ notice to you, Dear Reader, is that it would be nice if the diameter of the blur tool was able to be smaller. I mean, it’s not so big that it blurs your whole photo in a single swipe, it would be lovely to have it a bit smaller. I think I’ve written about 0 app reviews ever, so the fact that I took the time to draft this is significant. It’s a great free app.

So I love it, but I spent a long time getting the area just right and then I chose a background and saved it, thinking I could still try out the other backgrounds, but I had to start all over again. I wish it had saved the one I was working on.

BlurPhotoEffectBackground is WAY better than the others! 🖤 I have downloaded 6 other blur editor apps and this be is by far the best!🍍It has many different modes that you don’t have to pay for!!! 🍩 You don’t have to pay for anything on their and it’s super high quality! You should definitely get BlurPhotoEffectBackground!

so i just went to a game a couple days ago and wanted to edit some pics from the game and since i have a 7 - not a 7 plus or 8 plus i thought i’d find an app to blur pics instead of getting a new phone so i found this one and you know what ? I LOVE IT!! I can have pics that look like they had been taken on an 8+‼️‼️

BlurPhotoEffectBackground is really easy to. The tools are fun, the different types of blurs are fun. I also love how you can save photos and post to social media. I personally love the invert effect. It is key when you want to blur everything expect a small part of the photo. I want to keep BlurPhotoEffectBackground free so all Apple user can experience BlurPhotoEffectBackground. It's so fun, and I love it. I can't imagine what this will be like in a few years.

I was looking for an app that would not lower the quality of a picture when blurring out the background. BlurPhotoEffectBackground made a picture than was taken from a cell phone, look like it was taken from a professional camera...It was easy to use and compared the other blurring apps, the brush was not harsh and let me get into small spaces :)

by Disgusted In US

I downloaded BlurPhotoEffectBackground so I could transfer part of a picture to another background. They say color what you want to keep. It’s a joke. No matter how hard I tried, parts of what I colored came up spotty. The only two pictures I managed to have any success with I had to use another app and clone paint. If this is what you want BlurPhotoEffectBackground for, forget it, it doesn’t work.

by Vsterminator

This is honestly the best blur app I've come across. You can change the intensity of the blur along with the brightness of it. It's easy to use. There's a brush and zoom capabilities. All the strokes will blend to the same blur setting. It's great! There are no downsides.

Also! The ads aren't annoying, they only pop up when you first open it and they don't interfere with your project by popping up at random times.

5/5. ESPECIALLY for a free app.

I have a project that has yearbook pictures of alumni. I want to post some of these old high school pics, but there are a few guys I don’t recall in the class photos. I don’t want to post some of the unknown guys in the picture without their consent.
BlurPhotoEffectBackground was very easy to use. The multiple pixilation choices are amazing. It looks very professionally done.

BlurPhotoEffectBackground is amazing, it's super easy to use, and editing is quick and you're able to save pictures to your camera roll or post directly onto social media without an annoying watermark across the picture!
