When we record videos, especially on some places where there are many people involved, we cannot avoid capturing other people’s faces. Furthermore, when we share these videos online or with friends and relatives, we certainly do not get the approval of the other people that were caught on camera. Aside from that, in case you want to share a certain video and you do not want to show your face to people, the only solution is that you just blur your face in the video. However, on most devices, blurring face is not an option. You first need to make use of a third-party tool to do so. Below are three great ways on how you can blur face in video.
