The Video Blur feature works simply. Users click a button during a video call. The tool then blurs everything behind them. The person on the call stays clear. The background becomes a soft, fuzzy image. This hides personal items or a busy room.
Facebook says the tool uses smart technology. This technology identifies the person and separates them from the background. It then blurs only the background area. The system works on many devices. It works on phones and computers. Facebook made it easy to use.
The main goal is privacy. It hides your room so others see only you. This looks more professional too. People don’t need to worry about their space. They can focus on the conversation. The tool is free for all Facebook users. It works on Messenger calls and Facebook video calls.
