Add a blurred backdrop without changing your photo
Pixpie blurs a duplicate of the whole image and places it behind the clear original to fill empty canvas space. It does not detect or blur objects inside your photo.
Keep the whole photo
The backdrop is blurred, not the background inside your photo
The blurred layer is a second copy of the complete image. The clear original sits above it and can be resized or repositioned independently without changing its contents.
A blurred copy fills the canvas
The complete image is duplicated and softened to create the backdrop; no subject detection is involved.
Precise scale and position
Move and zoom the foreground until the subject sits exactly where you want it.
Matching preview and export
The high-resolution PNG keeps the same crop, spacing, and blur shown in the editor.

Questions
Before you start
Will Pixpie upload my photo?
No. Photo processing happens locally in your browser, and Pixpie does not receive the image.
Does Pixpie detect and blur the background inside my photo?
No. Pixpie does not segment people or objects. It blurs a duplicate of the complete image and uses that copy as a backdrop behind the clear original.
Do I have to crop the foreground?
No. You can preserve the complete photo, choose a foreground ratio, and adjust its scale and position independently.
Which image formats are supported?
The editor supports JPG and PNG images and exports a high-resolution PNG.
Does the exported image have a watermark?
No. Pixpie exports the finished image without a watermark.
