About

AutoFocus

AutoFocus turns anyone holding your phone into an excellent photographer. It detects the person in the frame, adjusts lighting and exposure automatically, and tells the shooter exactly what to do until the composition is right and the shutter fires on its own. AutoFocus is for couples who can never take good photos of each other, and for the stranger who gets asked to take the group shot and delivers something unusable. INCLUDED FREE Live subject tracking Face-metered exposure Three capture formats, including 9:16 for stories PRO AF - REQUIRES A PAID SUBSCRIPTION The features below are not part of the free app. They unlock only with a Pro AF subscription, bought inside the app: Six professional-grade filters Custom photo styles Guided pose packs, updated monthly Auto-zoom Video coaching No watermark Pro AF costs $4.99 per month, or $19.99 per year starting with a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. A free trial becomes a paid subscription unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the current period ends, and your account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours of that. Manage the subscription and turn off auto-renewal in your Apple Account settings. PRIVACY Photos are processed on your phone and never uploaded. When you share a shot, what gets shared is the shot "recipe" behind it, the framing and exposure numbers, not the picture itself. Anonymous usage stats is off by default unless you switch it on in Settings. ABOUT Built by a solo developer in the UK.
