looking great!!! is there an "auto enhance" feature? for begginers or maybe to get an idea of where to aim

@rupgo Thank you, Ruben! We’re planning to add more automatic features to streamline the editing process. Since we primarily focus on pro users, we ensure you still have full control for that perfect final touch!

@gorovskyy I completely understand is focused for pro users, but begginers and enthusiast that want to learn are a huge market audience that could be interesting for your roadmap :)

@rupgo absolutely! We'll look into it! We'd love to be accessible for anyone aspiring to capture awesome portraits!

Let's gooooooooooooooo🚀

I’ve been testing Aperty Portrait Editing for the last two months and have spent hours getting to know every tool the application has to offer. What stands out to me the most is how simple and efficient the user interface is. It’s intuitive and user-friendly, making it easy to dive right in, even for beginners. Yet, it’s still powerful enough for more advanced users to fine-tune every detail. The results it delivers are beautifully natural—something I’ve struggled to find with other similar software. Aperty enhances portraits without going overboard, maintaining the authenticity and character of the original image. The editing process itself is fast and gives you complete control over the amount of adjustment you want to apply. The AI masking is another feature I absolutely love. It automatically detects and isolates portrait features like skin, eyes, and hair, which saves me so much time and allows me to focus on perfecting the final look. If you work with a lot of images, the batch processing feature is incredibly efficient. It handles multiple files at once with impressive speed. Overall, Aperty Portrait Editing is a fantastic tool that I’d recommend to anyone looking to elevate their portrait photography. If this is the first release, I’m already excited to see where it goes from here!

With just a few clicks, I can get professional-quality results without spending ages on each photo. The app is super intuitive and has everything I need to make portraits look polished and eye-catching. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants quick, pro-level edits

Retouching is super realistic and Light Control is amazing
