Ever been on a video call and suddenly felt self-conscious about the laundry pile or that questionable artwork in the background? Yeah, we’ve all been there! Luckily, your swanky Samsung Galaxy S25, S25+, or Ultra has a neat little feature that lets you blur that background right out of existence. It’s like magic, but it’s just clever tech! This isn’t just about hiding a messy room, though. It’s about putting the focus squarely on you, making your video calls look more professional and less distracting.

Think about those important work calls or catching up with family – blurring the background keeps things clean and keeps everyone focused on the conversation, not what’s going on behind you. Plus, it adds a touch of polish to your chats, making you look like you’ve got your life together, even if your living room says otherwise. So, ditch the frantic tidying before every call and let your Galaxy S25 work its blurring wonders. Ready to become a background-blurring pro? Let’s get started!

Galaxy S25/S25+/Ultra: How to Blur Background In A Video Call

How to Blur Background in a Video Call on Samsung Galaxy S25 Series:

1. Start Your Video Call: Open your preferred video calling app (like WhatsApp, Google Meet, Zoom, etc.) and initiate a video call.
2. Access Video Call Effects: During the call, swipe down from the top of your screen to open the Quick Settings panel. You might need to swipe down twice to see all the options.
3. Look for “Video Call Effects”: Find the “Video Call Effects” option. It might be located on a different page of the Quick Settings, so swipe left or right if you don’t see it immediately.
4. Tap “Video Call Effects”: Select “Video Call Effects.”
5. Choose “Background”: Within the Video Call Effects menu, tap on “Background.”
6. Select “Blur”: You should see different background options. Choose “Blur.” You might have a slider to adjust the intensity of the blur.
7. Confirm (if needed): The background of your video call should now be blurred. You might see a preview on your screen.
8. Continue Your Call: That’s it! Your background will remain blurred for the duration of the video call. You might need to enable this feature each time you start a new video call, depending on the app and your phone’s settings.
