Portrait photos on iPhone 15: Transform a regular photo into a portrait shot

The iPhone’s multi-lens array has been enhancing snapshots since Portrait mode first launched on the iPhone 7 Plus. But the iPhone 15 no longer needs a swipe over into Portrait to blur the background. In fact, the requirement list for the iPhone 15’s Portrait photos is the same as the lens on the back of the iPhone 15 Pro — there are just three. The iPhone 15 has ditched a majority of the portrait mode limitations, allowing you to snap portrait photos without the 2x lens, without a recognizable person or pet, and even without swiping into the portrait mode itself.
