Photos with effect bokeh o portrait mode They have gained a lot of popularity over the last few years. Now Google Photos works on an option that is already available on iOS. So you can edit blur in Google Photos.
You will be able to edit blur in Google Photos: the function begins to appear in iOS
All the photos in portrait mode with effect bokeh are those in which the photographed subject appears in the foreground fully in focus, while the background appears out of focus or "broken". This allows the person photographed to stand out more and achieve more artistic results. Initially it was necessary to have a dual camera to achieve this effect, since each lens was responsible for focusing on an area and editing accordingly. However, today it is no longer difficult to find portrait modes performed via software, either with the rear or front camera. This eliminates the need for the second sensor.
En Google we have a company that has focused a lot of effort on this section, since it has allowed it to stand out with its mobiles pixel and, above all, with its camera app, the GCAM. In everything related to the software treatment of photographs, they have mastered it. And this is how the function that they are implementing in the app makes sense. Google Photos for iOS. And it is that from now on you can edit blur in Google Photos in a simple way so that the photos in portrait mode are as you want.

How to edit blur in Google Photos: this is how it will work
The function of edit blur in Google Photos It is currently only available for iOS. Nevertheless, will also come to Android. After all, the same thing happened with the dark mode of YouTube, which came first to Apple mobiles. While this is taking place, we can understand how this tool is going to work. The first thing is, of course, to take a picture with the portrait mode in Google Photos. Then we have to open it through the Google Photos app. The edit button is pressed and then pressed again to edit the depth and focus.
Once we make the changes we want, we will have to save them. Of course, you must take more things into account. First of all: it only works with photos originally taken with the portrait mode. You cannot add blur to a photo taken in normal mode. Second: in Android it will apply the same. And why do we say the latter? Because if your mobile doesn't have a native portrait mode but you want to take advantage of this function, you'd better get a GCam port that activates it.
