Focos is a big step into the future of computational photography and light-field camera, bringing DSLR-like photography to your iPhone and iPad Pro, with beautiful bokeh effects usually achievable only with professional large aperture cameras. With the technology of computational photography, you can make unlimited changes to your photos, focus after the fact, change the aperture repeatedly, and add multiple lights in 3D space, exceeding the limits of any editing tools you’ve known before. The creative potential unleashed by Focos is endless.

The Verge, "Focos has long been one of the most ambitious photo-editing apps on iOS, turning any photo into a 'portrait mode'-style image with fully adjustable depth of field, no matter what kind of camera you took it with."

MAIN FEATURES - Take photos with shallow depth of field, without manually painting or making selections. - The AI engine can calculate depth of field automatically for all photos. - True 3D imaging. - Simulate large apertures to create real bokeh effects normally only possible with DSLR cameras and expensive lenses. - Import all existing photos and customize the bokeh effect. - Re-focus portrait photos that have already been taken, with a simple tap. - Choose from various simulated aperture diaphragms to generate different bokeh spot effects. - Professional options to simulate lens characteristics, such as creamy, bilinear, swirly, and reflex effects, and more. - Visualize the depth of areas within your portrait photos in a 3D view, and intuitively add depth filters. - Add multiple lights in a 3D space, and adjust the color, brightness and so on for each light. - Check the portrait picture in the real world with augmented reality technique. - It is possible to patch the depth map precisely on iPad with Apple Pencil. - Intuitive and easy to use, with built-in video tutorials. - An essential tool for all iPhones and iPads.

Easy to use and absolutely perfect for portraits on the iPhone.
     
by Carl 56 · May 12, 2026

The app was easy to understand and use and gave very excellent results on my iPhone 14 Pro Max. I already own a Lensbaby lens and the effect in Focos was vey faithful to the real lens. Highly recommend this one!

Best blurring app in the business
     
by Boss435 · May 18, 2026

I’ve been using Focos for years now and still haven’t found any other app that is even close to producing the magnificent effect that this one does. Love it!

100 dollars per year!
     
by Joey D.34663 · May 5, 2026

100 dollars a year for this app just to blur out the background. There’s no need for this to be subscription based.

Disappointing iPad App
     
by carrieann.cw · April 22, 2026

The iPhone version has amazing features. Sadly, all of them are missing from the iPad app.

This is the best part of the app on quality iPhone plus

Not the easiest, but with patience, it should be great.

Potentially it’s gonna work great hardly get started.Once you figure out how to use and fine-tune the fields of blur, you can really make it look perfect. The iPad version is really giving me problems. I definitely recommend doing some tutorials.

Price

I used to use this only for adding bokeh. It used to be free now you have to pay. Zero stars.

Scammy subscription?
     
by Groundling123 · June 30, 2026

Something has gone wrong with this app, which I remember thinking was quite reputable some years ago. But I was astonished on latest download to find it absolutely crippled for use, unless I paid —no kidding, — $9.99 every WEEK. You read that correctly, every WEEK. Why would a developer have such a pricing as their default? I don’t know, but one possibility is that their new business plan includes hoping that people forget to cancel their weekly subscription after the first few days. Just a guess. (Yes, there is a $99 per year subscription plan, but nothing reasonable by the month. And $99 per year is also an astonishingly high price for an app that isn’t handling your entire workflow.) All in all, this bizarre pricing makes me worry that the developer has perhaps been bought out by some predatory firm. I don’t know that to be the case, I am just suspicious that where there is smoke there is fire. So I will not give them any of my data, or any access privileges on my phone.
