Enable Portrait Mode to Blur Your Background in FaceTime
Portrait mode lets those you’re calling see you clearly, So whether it’s a business call or a personal one, you can be almost anywhere or have nearly anything behind you without distracting from your video conversation. With Portrait mode enabled, you can still use Memojis, filters, stickers, and text during your FaceTime call. So you can enjoy the same fun features for your call while blurring your background simultaneously. You can enable Portrait mode in FaceTime in two ways.
Enable Portrait Mode Before a FaceTime Call
If you’re the one making the FaceTime call, you can prepare ahead of time by enabling Portrait mode.
Enable Portrait Mode During a FaceTime Call
If you’re on the receiving end of a FaceTime video call, you can easily enable Portrait mode during the call. You can then swipe to exit Control Center, return to FaceTime, and place your call.
