Frequently Asked Questions

Is this the same as portrait mode?
Very similar — portrait mode on phones uses depth sensors, this uses AI to detect the subject. The result is comparable: sharp subject, smooth blurred background.
Can I control the blur amount?
The blur uses a fixed Gaussian radius optimized for natural-looking results. For custom blur, use a dedicated photo editor.
