To unblur Course Hero documents, here are the main methods commonly used:
Official Methods
- Subscribe to Course Hero Premier: Paying for a subscription grants unlimited access to all blurred documents and answers legally and instantly
- Earn Unlocks by Contributing: Upload your own study materials, rate papers, or create quizzes on Course Hero to earn unlock credits that can be used to unblur documents without paying
Unofficial Methods
- Inspect Element Hack (Browser Developer Tools):
- Open the blurred document on Course Hero in a web browser like Chrome.
- Right-click on the blurred content and select "Inspect" or "Inspect Element."
- In the developer tools, locate the CSS property causing the blur (often a "blur" filter or a background image).
- Remove or modify the blur property or open the background image URL in a new tab and edit the URL to remove the blur overlay.
- This method works on some documents but has been partially patched by Course Hero and may not work universally
- AI Image Enhancement Tools:
- Use AI-powered photo enhancers like HitPaw FotorPea or KlearMax for Photo to unblur images of documents by uploading the blurred screenshots and letting the AI enhance them
- Discord Servers and Online Communities:
- Some Discord servers share unlocked Course Hero documents freely, which can be a quick way to access content without paying
Important Notes
- The inspect element method may violate Course Hero’s terms of service and can risk account suspension
- Some methods are temporary or partial fixes and may not reveal all content perfectly.
- The most reliable and ethical way to access Course Hero content is through official subscriptions or earning unlocks by contributing study materials.
