Free photography tip: Clean lens and tap face (step 3 of 6 from "Golden Hour Portraits on Your Phone").
Wipe lens. Frame head and shoulders with space above hair. Tap face on screen — exposure locks to skin. Drag brightness down slightly if background blows out; up if face is too dark.
Portrait mode: use at 1.5–2 m distance; double-check hair edges — bad cutouts mean step back and turn mode off.
