Frequently Asked Questions
- Why a solid bar instead of a soft blur on plates?
- Plate numbers are short (6-8 characters) and a soft blur can occasionally leave them partly legible to AI plate-reading tools. A solid bar makes the plate unreadable forever — strongest choice for anything you're publishing publicly, especially car listings going on marketplace sites.
- Can I switch to mosaic or blur instead?
- Yes — switch the 'Privacy strength' option from Solid to Pixelate or Soft blur. Solid is the default because for plates it's the safest.
