It used to be impossible to blur photo background on iPhone, but now it’s actually super easy. Here are the 3 simple ways to blur the background on your iPhone to make the subject stand out in portraits and still life shots.

When you try to add the background blur in photo editors, you’re creating several copies of each photo that differ ever-so-slightly. So before those add up and take up all the storage on your iPhone, try Gemini Photos to quickly find similar shots, spot the best copies, and delete the rest.
