Blur Notification Screenshot

Soften lock-screen and banner text before posting phone UI bugs.

🔒 No upload · Runs in your browser · Instant download

Notification banners pack sender names, OTP codes, and message previews into a sliver of screen. Blur the banner area before sharing a repro of iOS or Android layout issues publicly.

HideShot processes locally so dating-app and banking alerts never upload to a random 'screenshot beautifier' online. Cover the icon row if avatars identify contacts.
