Hide Personal Info on a Shipping Label Photo
Unboxing photos, marketplace listings, and return requests often show a shipping label. That label has your name, address, and phone number on it. With Photo Mosaic you drag over just those parts and save a clean copy.
What to hide on a label
Go through the label before you post. These are the parts that usually matter:
- Recipient name
- Phone number, even if it is a relay or masked number
- Street address, especially the unit or apartment number
- Tracking number
- Barcode or QR code, since a scan can reveal the same details
How to hide them
The tool works with a mouse on a computer and with your finger on a phone.
- Open Photo Mosaic and add the photo. You can drag it in, pick a file, or paste it with Ctrl+V.
- Drag over each area you want to hide, one at a time.
- Under Hide style, choose Mosaic, Blur, or Black box.
- Adjust Strength and zoom in on the preview to make sure nothing can be read.
- Choose JPG or PNG and click "Save mosaic photo".
- After hiding the label, run the photo through Reduce Photo Size to also remove location data (EXIF).
- The same tool works for faces, license plates, and chat screenshots.
Mosaic, blur, or black box
Mosaic and Blur look softer, but large printed text can keep its outline if the strength is low. For text like addresses and numbers, Black box is the safest choice because it covers the area completely.
If you miss a spot, use Undo to step back or Reset to start over. You can also drag over the same area again to strengthen it.
Before and after you save
A saved file cannot be turned back into the original, so check it carefully first. Keep your original photo somewhere private in case you need it later.
For several photos, follow the same order each time: name, phone, address, tracking number, barcode. It makes it hard to forget one.
Your photo is not uploaded
Label photos are personal, so the tool never sends them anywhere. The image is edited inside your browser on your own device.
Frequently asked questions
Which style hides text best?
Black box. It fully covers the area, while mosaic and blur can leave outlines on large text.
Can I undo a mistake?
Yes, before saving. Use Undo for one step or Reset to start over. Saved files cannot be restored.
Is the photo uploaded?
No. It is processed only on your device.
