Thanks for hunting @stuart_rowlands @nicketc this is a great one for the photography fans out there, how did you go about making this project? I'd love to know more about how you built it.

Thanks @abadesi, much appreciated. We were intrigued by the depth metadata iOS11 introduced to Portrait Mode photos and wanted to see what we could do with it. There really aren't many apps out there making use of it yet, so it's an exciting area to get something unique and genuinely useful out there for avid photographers. The next update will have support for upper/lower bound ranges for finer grain control, as well as more filters/effects. If you have any ideas we're all ears!

Yes, the depth metadata is a very interesting feature of IOS11. The same is exploited by the Focos app for its refocus capability: https://www.producthunt.com/post... I would love to chat a bit with you, the amazing creators.
