About this tool

Each block takes its area's average color, so details are irreversibly removed from the downloaded file.

Small blocks give a retro feel; large blocks make the image unrecognizable.

Frequently asked questions

Can pixelation be undone?

Not from the downloaded file: the original information is gone. Keep your original if you need it.

Is my image uploaded?

No. Everything happens in your browser and the image never leaves your device.
