A face or plate may appear for only a few frames. Scrub from start to finish and verify every mask while the subject moves.
Video privacy guide
Blur faces and private details in short videos.
Video support is in development. Until it is ready, use this checklist to avoid exposing bystanders, license plates, screens, addresses, voices or hidden metadata in a shared clip.
Video editor coming later
We will only release video masking when frame-by-frame review, manual correction and export are reliable enough for real privacy work.

Check more than pixels
Names can appear in subtitles and voices can identify people. Inspect audio, captions, reflections and metadata as separate privacy layers.
Prefer editable masks
Automatic detection is only a starting point. A trustworthy workflow must let you move, resize, add and remove masks frame by frame.
Before you share
A blur is only safe after you review the exported file.
Play the final export outside the editor. Pause on scene changes, verify that masks remain attached to moving subjects, and confirm that the original unredacted file is not uploaded by mistake.
- Watch every frame of the final export.
- Listen for names, addresses and private conversations.
- Keep the original file private and share only the new copy.
Can I anonymize videos with MaskBeforeShare today?
No. Video editing and video export are not currently available. The free image anonymizer works with screenshots and photos, without signup.
Why is video harder to anonymize?
Masks must follow a subject across frames, including scene cuts and occlusions. A correct mask on one frame does not establish that the whole clip is protected.
What should I review before sharing a video?
Review faces, license plates, screens, addresses and reflections throughout the clip. Also check audio, subtitles and file metadata: visual blur does not remove them.
