Apple's event introducting the iPhone 15 mentioned some improvements to the native camera's Portrait mode. One of those is the ability to change the focus point of a Portrait mode photo. This feature is not limited to the iPhone 15 series, though. I found I'm able to use it on my iPhone 14 Pro running iOS17. I haven't tested it much yet, so I'm making two assumptions here:
* It will work on any iPhone that can run iOS17.
* It will only work on Portrait mode photos taken with iOS17, not on older ones. (I'd be happy to be wrong about this, but haven't tested it.)
At any rate, open the Portrait mode photo in the Photos app, tap Edit to get into Edit mode, and then tap the spot on the image where you want the focus point to be. So far, I've tested this (once) on my iPhone 14 Pro, and it worked.
I haven't yet tested it on my iPad, where you have the extra wrinkle of making sure that the depth info gets included with your image when it's transferred from iPhone to iPad.
