How to View Blurred Images on Websites: 4 Ways

It can be quite frustrating when images are blurred on a certain page, and in this guide, we’re going to show you how to unblur an image on a website, so let’s get started.

Some websites are blurred because they want to restrict their content to only registered or paying users. Others want to interact with the website before revealing the whole content.

How do I remove the blur from a website?

1. Use the Reader mode

1. Open the page with blurred content.
2. Next, activate the Reader mode. It’s usually located in the address bar.
   
3. Your page with images should now be unblurred.

2. Use the Google Translate tool

1. Open the website and copy the URL of the page.
2. Then, go to Google Translate and paste the URL into the text box on the left.
3. Click on the URL that appears on the right.
4. After completing the steps above, a new tab with an unblurred version of the page will open.

3. Use the Internet Archive tool

1. Copy the URL of the page with the blurred content you want to view.
2. Then, go to Internet Archive and paste the URL into the WayBack Machine search bar to check if the page was archived.
3. Now, select the page version you want to view by picking the latest archived version based on date and time.
4. This should direct you to the archived version you selected, where you can see the blurred content.
