## What is Focal Plane?

Focal Plane turns a flat photo into a depth-aware scene, then lets you light it, grade it, and blur it like a real lens.

Most "portrait blur" apps fake a gradient. Focal Plane builds a true depth map of your image and uses it to drive everything: where the focus falls, how the bokeh rolls off, which colors warm up in the foreground, how the haze settles in the distance. The result looks photographed, not filtered.

Everything renders on-device. No account, no cloud upload, no subscription.

REAL LENS BOKEH
• Tap to set the focal plane, then shape the falloff on both sides on a live depth scale
• Soap-bubble rims, Petzval swirl, spherical aberration, polygonal aperture blades
• Highlight bloom, chromatic aberration, barrel/pincushion distortion
• Preview matches export pixel-for-pixel

DEPTH-AWARE COLOR GRADING
• Grade foreground and background separately: exposure, temperature, tint, contrast, saturation, vibrance, highlights
• Master and per-channel curves, split-toning, depth vignette and matte fades

ATMOSPHERE & LIGHT
• Aerial haze: distant subjects fade into airlight while the subject stays crisp
• Flash relight: disposable-camera falloff that crushes the background
• HDR tone, glow, halation, sensor noise and film grain

LAYERED LOOKS
Stack a lens look, a depth grade and a film texture (Creamy Portrait, Swirl, Soap Bubbles, Golden Backdrop, Fog Bank, Night Flash, Halation, Light Leak and more), each previewed live on your own photo, with an amount dial to ease it back. Save your own looks and copy them between photos.

SEE AND FIX THE DEPTH
• Turn your photo in 3D to see what's near and far
• Paint depth repairs with an edge-aware brush
• Portrait-mode photos use their own depth; a fast depth model is built in and works offline
• On Mac, an optional Ultra Quality model downloads on demand for the finest edges

BUILT LIKE A CAMERA
Machined dials, a depth scale with focus peaking, and undo for every edit. Export to Photos or Files, and HDR photos stay HDR.

VIDEO, TOO
Bring the same depth-of-field and grading to clips, with depth smoothed across frames for stable, flicker-free motion.

ONE APP, EVERY DEVICE
A universal app for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro.

PRIVACY
Your photos never leave your device. No tracking, no ads, no sign-in.

Shoot it flat. Finish it with depth.
