    Blur background app

    The interaction between the background and the foreground is a very important aspect of photography. Being able to accentuate the model being photographed and hide flaws in the background is just as important a skill for the photographer as it is for post-processing those photos. And if you are not happy with the original results, you can always make the necessary adjustments with the blur background app. This app will allow you not only to hide the background, but also to achieve the popular bokeh effect, which will emphasize the foreground, whether the model or the subject of the photo. Let us learn about the app features and how to blur background in picture.

    RetouchMe — a simple yet effective app to blur background

    There are a lot of multi-functional apps and specific apps to blur background to achieve different results. Which one to choose, and why do you need the app in the first place?

    If you try adding a bokeh effect outside the phone app to blur background in photos usage, you would probably try this in Adobe Photoshop. Here you will see the main issue is that it is quite hard to select the object in the foreground and separate it from the background. We basically need 2 separate pictures for both grounds to overlay a specific effect. Most of the app to blur background of photo do this based on automatic algorithms. This may lead to poor results, because the algorithm can not consider the photo quality, the lighting and shadows, and you will not get natural looking results of that.

    They usually only took about an hour at the most to edit your photos. Now they’re taking 4-5 hours to edit them and when you come check on it in 4-5 hours you still have another 3 hours to wait !! it’s RIDICULOUS! it was never this bad. this need to get fixed asap! they charge you to edit them so why does it take so long ? it’s ridiculous

    Definitely worth the price, recently editing times have increased greatly and now I don't see an option to pay more coins to speed up but I understand times are tough and headcount of editors might be low, the editors do a great job at editing and that is what matters most at the end of the day. Thank you for keeping this app running behind the scenes. I will be a lifetime customer. Hope to see the speed up editing option back!

    Tremendously fast & for the most-part, high quality edits! I’ve had a few I had to resubmit due to complete misses, so I wish that process was a bit more customer friendly & that I didn’t have to pay again for a replacement edit. But overall, great service!

    Totally worth every penny. This app takes all the work out of it and you end up with perfect photos that look exactly how you imagined them in your head and not only that, but they're also extremely realistic as well.

    well this is not a free app, there is a 99 cent renewable option for 20 retouches. I bit the bullet, bought, and glad I did. As a plus, the retouch was easy to use and natural looking not overdone

    I’ve been using this app for a while now and it really helps with a lot of my photos especially if they’re bad lighting or if it is a bad angle, I can really get my photo to look how I want them to look. I appreciate them being able to do it for me because I do not have any photo editing skills lol
