Can a blurred background be used in a form to keep a background image readable?

Yes. Among Jestor's form style options is a blur option for the background: when there's an image behind the form, the blur softens that image to improve the readability of the content, while keeping the image visible behind it.

Why does a background image without blur hurt a form's readability?

A sharp background image behind a form can visually compete with the text and fields, making it harder to read, especially if the image has a lot of detail or contrast. The blur effect solves that by softening the background, without needing to remove the image entirely.

How to enable a blurred background in Jestor?

Access the super form's style editor.
In the background color options, choose between transparent, solid color, or blur.
Selecting blur keeps the background image visible, but softened, so it doesn't get in the way of reading the form's content.
Combine it with other style options, like title and field color, to keep the visuals consistent with your brand identity.

Background option	When to use it
Transparent	When the form should take on the color of the app behind it
Solid color	When you want a specific brand color as the background
Blur	When there's a background image that needs to stay visible, but softened
