BlurMark

Chrome

Blur what you don't want to show.

BlurMark lets you blur elements and text you don't want to show on a web page with a simple click or drag. Hide personal information on screen before sharing your screen or taking a screenshot. Settings are stored only in your browser, and it never communicates with external servers.

    Everything stays in your browser

What BlurMark does not do

  • Masks only change how a page looks. The original content stays in the page and can still be read from its source or developer tools
  • BlurMark does not erase passwords or other secrets. The text you select to hide is saved unencrypted in your browser so the mask can be restored
  • Shadow DOM contents, canvas, PDFs and iframes are not supported, and a mask may not come back if a site changes its page structure
