Core
Blur adult content
Blur automatically detects and softens adult images and videos as you browse — not just stills, but motion too. Nothing catches you off guard.
Free & open source, forever
The browser that blurs what you don't want to see.
Blur is a native macOS browser that protects you from adult content by blurring it automatically — with website blocking and more on the way. Built on WebKit. Designed for calm, focused browsing.
v0.8.0 · Release notes ↗
Features
Everything you need. Nothing you don't.
A focused set of tools built around a simple promise: a calmer web.
Built-in
Vertical sidebar
Tabs live on the left, stacked vertically like a calm reading list. More room for page titles, less eye-darting along a cramped top bar.
Built-in
Keyboard shortcuts
Blur is made for the keyboard. Press ⌘ + / anywhere in the browser to pull up the full list of shortcuts — no hunting through menus.
Built-in
Seven themes, your mood
From airy Periwinkle to inky Midnight. Pick a palette for your window and the whole browser shifts with you.
Built-in
Quick search
Press ⌘K to search tabs, history, and the web from one calm overlay. No context switching.
Built-in
Zen mode
Hide the chrome, dim the noise, keep only the page. One shortcut away when you need to read, write, or think without the browser getting in your way.
Built-in
Funny error messages
When things go sideways, Blur doesn't lecture you with a stack trace. You get a witty, human error page that makes you smile instead of sigh.
Engine
Built on WebKit
The same engine that powers Safari. Fast to load, gentle on your battery, honest to web standards.
Core
Private & secure
No tracking, no telemetry, no ad networks watching your every move. Your browsing history stays on your Mac, where it belongs.
Coming soon
Website blocking
Block entire domains at the browser level. No extensions, no workarounds — it just doesn't load.
About
A quieter, safer web.
Blur began as a simple idea: the web shouldn't ambush you. Most browsers treat every pixel the same. Blur treats your attention like something worth protecting.
Under the hood, it's WebKit — the same rendering engine that powers Safari — so sites load fast, look right, and respect your battery. On top, we've added calm UI, seven hand-crafted themes, and a growing set of tools to shield you from what you'd rather not see.
Blur is free and will always be open source. No tracking, no upsells, no dark patterns. Just a browser that's on your side.
