Screen recordings often capture things viewers shouldn't see — customer data, passwords, internal URLs. A blur masks part of the picture for as long as you need, without changing your original recording.

## Adding a blur

1. Open **Clips** and move the playhead to the moment the sensitive information appears.
2. Click **Blur** in the toolbar. Playback pauses, and a blur is added at the playhead.

3. The step bar reads **Blur · Drag the box on the video · drag its bar on the timeline**:
   - Drag and resize the box on the video so it fully covers the sensitive area.
   - Drag the ends of the blur's bar on the timeline so it stays on screen for as long as the information is visible.
4. Click **Done** to return to the rest of Clips.

If a blur already covers the spot at the playhead, no new one is added — adjust the existing blur instead. If there are no blurs yet, the step bar reads **Add a blur, then size it on the video** and shows an **Add blur** button.

## Blurring several areas

While you're in Blur, click **Add another blur** to mask a second area, then size and time it the same way. Each blur has its own box and its own bar on the timeline.

## Removing a blur

Select the blur, then press **Backspace** or **Delete**.

## Previewing

Move the playhead a moment before the blur starts and press **Space** to check it covers the information for the whole time it's visible. Use the zoom slider or pinch on your trackpad to place the start and end precisely.

## What to blur

- **Customer data** — names, emails, phone numbers, addresses
- **Credentials** — passwords, API keys, tokens
- **Financial data** — account numbers, balances, transactions
- **Internal URLs** — staging environments, admin panels
- **Personal information** — colleagues' names, chat messages, email content
