How to use Portrait Mode (Blur Photo Background)
Choose a photo of one or more people, wait for the person to be found, adjust the blur and download the JPEG.
How it works
A MediaPipe people mask is refined at full size; the background is blurred while ignoring the person’s pixels, so no halo appears around them.
Example
A street portrait with strength 18 keeps the person sharp and turns the background into soft bokeh.
