## Description

FabFocus has been redesigned and rebuilt from the ground up to deliver the best possible portrait photography experience in Chrome. It detects faces automatically and intelligently blurs the background to create professional-looking portraits with beautiful bokeh. You can fine-tune the blur amount, choose shapes (including hearts and stars), and adjust brightness and saturation for foreground and background separately. The built-in drawing tool lets you refine the selection for tricky subjects like pets and plants.

FabFocus 2.0 emphasizes speed and simplicity. It includes a dedicated camera interface that configures itself for portrait capture on supported devices, fast editing with undo/redo, and quick sharing or saving of your photos. Designed for fast workflows, it's ideal for anyone who wants magazine-ready portraits from a single tool.
