Why we picked this?

Depthshot utilizes machine learning to create a portrait depth effect similar to Apple’s own native solution. The only major difference is that Depthshot works on iPhone 6 and later while Apple’s own solution requires an iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8 Plus, or later. The app also allows you to apply the portrait effect to existing photos in your camera roll or library.
