To see or not to see? The choice is yours.

- What a useful helper it is!
- Martin Naidoo
- Great app, performs well. Please can a feature be added to blur images based on certain keywords if possible. Thanks to the developer for this app!
- Yamamoto Takashi
- I would appreciate it if you could point out the blurry parts.
- Tatum Kayan
- GREAT APP
- Theo Conrads
- Would be nice to be able to change the shortcut as it blocks writing "@" on a Mac.
- Echo
- It's really amazing to use!
- Kishor Pasha
- Please add different blur. color option. Like nightlight, black, grey.
- Person000
- Since the recent update, X (formerly Twitter) images and videos are no longer blurred, but it keeps blurring the UI instead. Please fix it ASAP.
- Eduardo Sabatino
- The recent update has ruined a lot of the app. It now blurs entire webpages including text instead of just blurring images. Please fix this. On Telegram for example, it blurs the entire window, including all text.

- It it not working anymore. The website doesn't blur .
- Hachem Amarnia
- This extension is very useful 🔥 I often need to remove the Blur on certain sites, so I recommend adding a feature like "Remove Dimming for a Period" to allow users to automatically revert to the Blur view after the period has expired.
- Justin Chen
- Very creative! Thanks for the app! Quick suggestion: sometimes the blur comes on after half a second when visiting a new site. Maybe blur or block the whole site until the blur is applied to be safe? Otherwise, this is a very unique app for special occasions or situations.

- Very useful thank you so much.
- Tom
- I really like the simplicity of this extension. Only reason I did not give 5 stars, is because I would really like the blur setting to be unique to each site. Some sites require more blurring than others. Also, it would be nice to be able to blur images only, or videos only, and again on a site-specific level. It also does not seem to work on YouTube thumbnails, but only the channel avatars and other icons.

- Does not work on the current reddit design for embedded content and comments.

- Hello. I salute the developers of Image Blur extension. I have one request for modification. In my opinion, it would be better if the background color of the icon changes to red or other colors when the extension is activated. It is inconvenient because it looks the same whether it is activated or deactivated, so I have to click the icon every time to check the status. Please help me.

- Great extension. Thank you!
- Peter Hartmann
- It's a very nice extension to keep yourself from getting distracted however with the latest update there were some shortcuts added. the shortcut for activating the extension (ALT + L) is the same as writing the (at) email-symbol on Apple products. So now every time I want to use the ("at") I just activate/deactivate the extension and I have to copy and paste the symbol from somewhere. so its pretty much unusable for me now.

- amazingggggg

- amazing, now
- SHIVAM TRIPATHI
- this is one of the best extension it would be best if it was able to identify 18 + images and blur them
- iA7meD ツ
- I suggest to make it possible to change the shortcut button (to customize it). And to make the backgrounds in the web included with the blur (I mean the css backgrounds). Also to take a look on the new YouTube thumbnails, they were changed to be something not like img, something like background, I'm not sure what you should do, but you can 100% solve this by updating the accessing on them when it's on youtube.com. Thanks for the cool extension.

- Yassine JAAOUANE
- Very useful, I liked having: - the shortcut to toggle ON/OFF, - having the possibility of whilelist. - define blur amount It will be great if we can also blacklist specific sites. THANKS
- Weirdo Dude
- I FLIPPING LOVE THIS EXTENSION! Whenever I wanna blur something, this app is PERFECT for you! Especially when the blurring feels super tight, it's doing its job so well. And I NEVER expect it to also work on videos. I thought it'd only be for images, but when I learned it blurs videos just as much as photos, I just feel in love with this extension.

- Deborah Chiang-Harris
- doesn't work very well after latest update. 90% of the time nothing happens when I click enable, only way I know to fix is to reinstall the extension, but it stops working the next time. edit: update was reverted, working well again!
