Fashion Portrait
Subject-focused photos with beautifully blurred backgrounds.

Users familiar with the Native App’s Portrait Mode feel more at home.
User’s have access to a Portrait Mode that feels Pro and doesn’t suck.
How
We would need to add a new Capture Mode OR modification to the Lens Bar.
Communicate to the user what Pro configurations won’t work in Portrait mode
Add a new DOF control

Team Note:
This is currently not a priority for us, but we are curious to see what the interest is here.
Thanks!

This would be fantastic. Sometime I’ll grab quick decent portrait mode shots but I’m stuck using the apple native camera app.. I can then do some editing work, but if this option or something similar, I could use just the Moment app!

I may be wrong here, but didn't Apple announce that they're opening up the portrait mode to other camera app manufacturers? Has this happened? I don't know, but maybe something to look into.

You might be thinking of Cinematic mode, see attached. To get Portrait mode, developers can create a Portrait matte for depth control later, also attached. It might be cool to add the option to save portrait depth mattes for later use alongside the original photos. We could put this under a new ‘Enable Beta Features’ section.

LiDAR sensors on Pro iPhones would be good for use with this (AVDepthData)
