What It Does
OneBuddy's Privacy Blur lets you click or drag to blur any element on any webpage directly from the Chrome side panel controls. Choose from 5 distinct blur styles to hide sensitive content before screen sharing, presentations, recordings, or simply for personal privacy while browsing. Click any HTML element to blur it instantly, or drag to create a custom blur rectangle over any area of the page. Blurred areas are persistent — they are saved per-page and automatically re-apply when you revisit the same URL, saving you from manually re-blurring content every time. Toggle all blurs on or off with a single click, and manage blur regions on a per-site basis.
Why It's Better Than Standalone Extensions
No other Chrome extension offers persistent, multi-style privacy blur that automatically re-applies on page revisits — this feature is unique to OneBuddy. Standalone blur tools like Blur or Page Eraser are single-purpose extensions that add to your browser's memory footprint and extension count. OneBuddy combines privacy blur with ad blocking, tracker blocking, browser lock, encrypted messaging, and complete productivity tools in one extension. By consolidating your privacy blur tool with 13 other features, you get a cleaner extension bar and lower Chrome RAM usage. The 5 blur styles and per-site management give you more control than any competing tool.
