Modern blur for text while app is locked via FaceID/TouchID

[sigseg5]

Feature description

Hi, thanks for the incredibly useful cross-platform SSH client! I have one thing I’d like to mention: when the app is locked, all the content gets blurred, and it looks questionable. It’s slightly better on macOS but absolutely not good on iOS. The text on my iPhone looks really strange. Could you please research other ways to apply a modern blur effect to the text? It definitely shouldn’t be so “blocky.”

Thx for your time!

Hello @sigseg5 👋

Would you like "smoother" blur?

[sigseg5]

@isontheline yes, I think so

I will take a look at it

When blur is "smoother" we could use AI tools to extract content

[sigseg5]

Yes, theoretically it’s possible. Perhaps adding a checkbox with warning for ‘smoother zoom’ in the preferences would be a good solution. We could also apply a blur effect and use a ‘transition’ animation to remove the text after blur is applied. In the reverse case, we would do the opposite

Good option!
