Finger Focus lets you create photos with beautiful blur effects by simply tracing over the image with your fingertip. You can add depth, perspective, and atmosphere that cannot always be captured with the iPhone camera alone. Even if you trace broadly, the blur boundary is automatically adjusted, making it easy to achieve a natural-looking effect. With pinch gestures, you can seamlessly zoom in down to the pixel level, allowing you to carefully bring out subjects with detailed or complex shapes. You can check the result in real time as you trace. ■ How to Use Trace: Trace over the area you want to keep in focus. Pinch with two fingers: Zoom in, zoom out, and move the image. Double tap: Return to 100% view. ■ Main Features - Adjust the blur effect strength (BLUR) - Adjust the blur effect boundary (BORDER) - Adjust brightness, contrast, and saturation - Seamless zoom in and zoom out with pinch gestures - Adjustable brush size - Undo and eraser tools - Save the original image when taking photos with the camera Please feel free to send us your requests or feedback.
