Portrait App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — 人像相簿, 人像 & 景深 zh-Hans Copy

Who this is for

Western indie iOS and iPadOS developers — US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia — who:

• Ship or market a portrait organizer, depth-effect browser, or Portrait-album tool — or Photos-style Portrait album app whose buyers browse depth-effect portrait stills saved automatically on device
• Market Portrait, the Portrait album, portrait photos, depth-effect portraits, soft background blur, find portraits in Photos, or distinguish Portrait from Recents Selfies or Live Photos on the en-US product page under Photos → Albums → Portrait framing
• Finished Portrait-aware UX or on-device portrait browsing, depth-effect filtering, or Portrait-album grid flows in the binary — not looking for Camera Portrait Mode capture engineering or general photo-library browsing help here
• Enabled the China storefront but the zh-Hans product page still shows English copy or untranslated Portrait badge lines on screenshots
• Need paste-ready zh-Hans listing fields — not an engineer for AVFoundation depth capture, not a designer to re-render Portrait screenshot PNGs, not Camera Portrait Mode or Cinematic Mode marketing copy as the hero

If your lead feature is general photo library browsing — albums, iCloud Photos, Shared Albums — see Apple Photos & photo library listing (zh-Hans). If your hero is Camera Portrait Mode capture — not the Photos Portrait album — see Portrait Mode listing (zh-Hans, contrast). If your hero is the full Media Types format-album hub — not Portrait alone — see Media Types listing (zh-Hans, contrast). If your hero is front-camera Selfies — not depth-effect portraits — see Selfies listing (zh-Hans, contrast). If your hero is Live Photos motion stills — see Live Photos listing (zh-Hans, contrast). If the entire China page is still English on every field, start with China App Store still shows English or the AppLocale product page.

Portrait album organization vs zh-Hans listing copy — two different jobs

Teams assume Photos depth-effect capability on device covers storefront language. PhotoKit album routing, depth-effect classification, and Connect actually separate in-app Portrait album behavior from product-page copy:

• Photos → Albums → Portrait — the system smart album where depth-effect portrait stills collect on the buyer's device (often listed under Media Types). Controls on-device organization — not App Store language. AppLocale does not perform this.
• Depth-effect portrait stills — photos captured with Portrait Mode or equivalent depth metadata that Photos routes into the Portrait album. Product-page copy should describe that library path; building depth capture UI is engineering work, not Connect metadata.
• Portrait photos in the Portrait album — grouped depth-effect stills distinct from flat photos in Recents or front-camera shots in Selfies. Listing copy names that path; building album-grid UI is engineering.
• Soft background blur & depth effect — buyer-facing value props on portrait grid frames. zh-Hans overlays should use 背景虚化 or 景深 when your English gallery shows blur badges — not generic photo-library copy.
• Find portraits vs Recents or all photos — buyers open the Portrait album to locate depth-effect shots instead of scrolling Camera Roll or Recents. Listing copy names that path; building search or album UI is engineering.
• Find portraits vs Selfies, Live Photos, or Videos — product-page copy may describe why front-camera selfies stay in Selfies, motion stills in Live Photos, and clips in Videos when your English listing claims that workflow.
• Camera Portrait Mode (different surface) — iPhone Camera capture mode for shooting new depth-effect stills: Portrait Mode, Studio Light, 人像模式. Covered on our Portrait Mode guide — capture-mode marketing, not the Photos Portrait album grid hero unless your frames show album browsing only.
• Pricing and Availability → China — makes the app downloadable on the China App Store. Separate from language rows.
• App Store tab → Chinese (Simplified) localization — independent row for title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, screenshots, and caption lines. Empty or English here means China buyers see English fallback regardless of Portrait album support in the binary.

Working Portrait album organization and a localized China listing are both required when you sell on the China storefront — neither replaces the other. AppLocale covers how you describe Portrait, 人像相簿, and 景深 value on the product page in zh-Hans, not how you wire depth maps in code.

Portrait album listing copy vs Portrait Mode vs Selfies vs Live Photos vs Media Types vs Videos vs Screenshots

Photos-themed apps blur several shop guides indie teams conflate. AppLocale covers listing metadata only — Portrait album marketing on the product page:

• Portrait album (this page) — Photos → Albums → Portrait: depth-effect portrait stills in the system Portrait smart album, find portraits in Photos vs Recents or Selfies or Live Photos, distinguish Portrait from Screenshots Panoramas Bursts or the general photo library, with 人像, 人像相簿, 人像照片, 景深, 背景虚化, and 查找人像 vocabulary.
• Camera Portrait Mode (different) — iPhone Camera shallow-depth capture, Studio Light, 人像模式. Covered on our Portrait Mode guide — not the Portrait album grid hero unless your gallery shows album browsing only.
• Media Types hub (different) — format-album section listing Portrait beside Videos Selfies Live Photos and more. Covered on our Media Types guide — 媒体类型 hub vocabulary, not Portrait-only hero frames unless your English listing centers the full hub.
• Selfies album (different) — front-camera stills under Albums → Selfies. Covered on our Selfies guide — 自拍相簿, not depth-effect portrait grids.
• Live Photos album (different) — motion stills under Albums → Live Photos. Covered on our Live Photos guide — 实况照片, not Portrait depth-effect stills.
• Videos album (different) — video clips under Albums → Videos. Covered on our Videos guide — 视频相簿, not Portrait still grids.
• Screenshots album (different) — screen captures under Albums → Screenshots. Covered on our Screenshots guide — 截屏相簿, contrast only.
• Favorites album (different) — user-curated hearted collection. Covered on our Favorites guide — 个人收藏, contrast only.
• Panoramas & Bursts (different) — panoramic stills and burst sequences under their own albums. Covered on our Panorama and Burst guides — contrast only unless your gallery explicitly compares those surfaces.
• Cinematic Mode (different) — shallow-depth video capture. Covered on our Cinematic Mode guide — 电影效果 video, not Portrait still album grids.
• Recents & All Photos (different) — general library surfacing (最近项目). Not the Portrait album — contrast only. See Recents guide.
• Imports, Places, Duplicates, People & Pets, Shared Albums, iCloud Photos, Memories, Featured Photos (different) — each has a separate shop guide — not Portrait album hero copy unless your English listing explicitly centers those surfaces.

Your screenshots may show a Portrait grid beside a Selfies album or a Live Photos badge. Listing copy should name the correct surface per frame — a Portrait album with depth-effect thumbnails is not a Selfies front-camera grid, not a Live Photos motion badge, not a Camera Portrait Mode shutter tutorial, and not a Media Types hub with six format rows unless that is what the frame shows.

What China buyers see when zh-Hans Portrait copy is missing

Portrait-organizer app purchasers browsing the China App Store evaluate depth-effect browsing workflow value in the first scroll. Common failure modes when only en-US is filled:

• English title and subtitle — app name and tagline still Latin script while competitors show native Chinese Portrait or 人像相簿 positioning
• Untranslated Portrait badges on screenshots — overlay lines like "Portrait", "Portrait photos", "Find portraits", "Portrait album", "Depth effect", or "Soft background blur" remain English on zh-Hans gallery frames
• Portrait-browse value in English — description opens with US portrait-library marketing ("Every depth-effect shot, organized automatically") that China readers skim past or misread
• Keyword field still en-US — buyers search 人像, 人像相簿, 景深, or 背景虚化; an English-only keyword row misses China Search intent
• Mixed page — Chinese description pasted once but screenshot captions and subtitle still English — reads unfinished next to localized competitors
• Calling Portrait "Portrait Mode" or 人像模式 on album frames — 人像模式 fits Camera capture tutorials; Portrait album grids need 人像相簿 or 人像照片 vocabulary instead
• Calling Portrait "Selfies" or "Live Photos" — 自拍相簿 fits front-camera album frames; 实况照片 fits motion stills; Portrait hero frames need 人像 or 景深 copy
• Calling Portrait "Recents" or general "photo library" — 最近项目 fits chronological library browsing; depth-effect portrait grids need 人像相簿 vocabulary
• Collapsing Portrait into Media Types hub copy only — 媒体类型 fits the full format-album section; a Portrait-only app still needs 人像相簿 hero vocabulary when gallery frames drill into the Portrait grid

Better zh-Hans listing copy helps portrait-aware buyers understand Portrait album value before install. It does not replace PhotoKit album code, depth classification UI engineering, or Apple's review decisions.

Portrait-specific listing copy — what translates differently

Portrait album listings use vocabulary general photo-library guides rarely cover. zh-Hans copy should reflect how Chinese App Store readers describe depth-effect portraits in Photos — not a literal paste of US marketing:

Portrait & 人像相簿

US pages use "Portrait" on the album grid under Photos → Albums → Portrait or Media Types → Portrait. China storefront copy often uses 人像相簿 alongside the product name Portrait where appropriate on album-header and depth-effect grid frames.

Portrait photos & 人像 / 人像照片

Portrait still value props — depth-effect shots grouped in the Portrait album — appear frequently on Portrait marketing frames. zh-Hans copy should describe that path with 人像 or 人像照片 when that matches your English source — without inventing capture claims your listing does not support.

Depth effect & 景深 / 背景虚化

When your English gallery names soft background blur or depth effect — "Depth effect", "Soft background blur", "Beautiful bokeh" — frames may pair 景深 or 背景虚化 with the portrait grid your gallery actually shows. Camera Portrait Mode shutter UI belongs on the Portrait Mode guide — contrast only here.

Find portraits & distinguish from Selfies or Live Photos

Action-oriented screenshots — open Portrait to find depth-effect shots, compare Portrait vs Selfies or Live Photos or Recents — need clear zh-Hans phrasing with 查找人像 so buyers understand the album is for depth-effect stills, not every photo, selfie, or motion still on the device.

Distinguish from Videos & general library

Video clips live under Videos; flat stills live in Recents. Portrait listing copy should name why depth-effect portrait stills stay in the Portrait album when your English gallery shows that contrast — without making Videos or Recents the primary hero unless those frames dominate.

Subtitle and keyword packing

The 30-character subtitle and 100-character keyword field need Portrait-relevant search terms Chinese buyers type — see Simplified Chinese keywords & subtitle for field mechanics. Terms like 人像相簿, 人像, 景深, and 背景虚化 each signal different intent from 自拍相簿 Selfies keywords or 人像模式 Camera capture keywords.

Before / after — Portrait listing phrases (en-US → zh-Hans)

Concrete examples AppLocale rewrites from your English source — not Camera Portrait Mode capture or Media Types hub-only copy:

• Screenshot caption — Before: Portrait → After: 人像相簿
• Description line — Before: Find every depth-effect portrait in one place → After: 在一个地方查找所有人像照片
• Subtitle (30 chars) — Before: Portrait organizer → After: 人像整理工具
• Screenshot caption — Before: Portrait photos → After: 人像照片
• Screenshot caption — Before: Find portraits → After: 查找人像
• Screenshot caption — Before: Depth effect → After: 景深效果
• Screenshot caption — Before: Soft background blur → After: 背景虚化
• Screenshot caption — Before: Portrait album → After: 人像相簿
• Keyword field — Before: Portrait,portrait photos,depth effect,find portraits,background blur → After: 人像,人像相簿,人像照片,景深,背景虚化,查找人像

Final phrasing depends on your English claims, Portrait surfaces on gallery frames, and Connect character caps. See Screenshot captions in Simplified Chinese for overlay mechanics.

Common mistakes on Portrait zh-Hans listings

• Assuming depth-effect capture localizes automatically — Portrait album UX ships in the app; zh-Hans row never added or left blank
• Only translating the description — subtitle, keywords, and Portrait screenshot caption lines still English
• Conflating Portrait album with Camera Portrait Mode — 人像模式 fits capture tutorials; 人像相簿 fits Portrait album frames — see Portrait Mode guide for capture-mode copy
• Conflating Portrait with Selfies — 自拍相簿 fits front-camera album frames; Portrait needs 人像 or 景深 copy
• Conflating Portrait with Live Photos — 实况照片 fits motion-still album frames; Portrait needs 人像相簿 vocabulary
• Conflating Portrait with Videos or Cinematic Mode — 视频相簿 and 电影效果 fit video marketing; Portrait album grids need 人像 copy
• Conflating Portrait with Media Types hub only — 媒体类型 fits the full format section; Portrait-only hero frames still need 人像相簿 vocabulary
• Conflating Portrait with People & Pets — 人物和宠物 fits face-grouped people albums; Portrait is the depth-effect still album under Albums
• English Portrait badges on zh-Hans screenshots — Connect caption fields are Chinese but burned-in badges on PNG exports are still Latin
• Expecting AppLocale to implement depth-map or Portrait album APIs — PhotoKit depth classification and album engineering is outside listing rewrite

Connect checklist before you order Portrait listing copy

1. Confirm China under Pricing and Availability — storefront enabled if you intend to sell there
2. Confirm which Portrait surfaces your app markets — Portrait album grid, depth-effect portraits, find portraits vs Recents or Selfies or Live Photos, distinguish from Screenshots or general library — listing copy must match your gallery frames
3. Separate album browsing from Camera Portrait Mode capture — if your gallery shows shutter UI and Studio Light controls, scope may belong on the Portrait Mode guide instead
4. Open App Store → Chinese (Simplified) — note whether the zh-Hans row exists and which text fields are empty vs English placeholder
5. Export current English Portrait marketing copy — current en-US title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, and every screenshot overlay line ("Portrait", "Portrait photos", "Find portraits", "Depth effect", "Soft background blur")
6. List screenshot frames that show Portrait UI — note which gallery images show Portrait album grids, depth-effect thumbnails, or Recents-vs-Portrait comparison so caption lines match frame order
7. Separate listing from in-app album strings — listing rewrite does not cover album titles or blur labels rendered inside the app after install
8. Plan caption re-export if text is burned into PNGs — Connect caption fields help when overlays are editable; English baked into image files needs design rework outside AppLocale

What AppLocale delivers

For one Portrait-themed app on the zh-Hans row, paste-ready Simplified Chinese copy for the listing fields you specify:

• Title (name) — zh-Hans app name within Connect character limits
• Subtitle — Portrait or depth-effect portrait positioning within the ~30-character cap
• Keywords — comma-separated zh-Hans search terms with rationale notes (人像相簿, 人像, 景深 as appropriate)
• Description — buyer-readable body copy aligned with your English Portrait listing meaning
• Promotional text — when you include the 170-character promo field in scope
• Screenshot overlay / caption lines — zh-Hans replacements for "Portrait", "Portrait photos", "Find portraits", "Portrait album", "Depth effect", and soft background blur frame text
• English alignment — matching en-US field notes when both storefronts must stay consistent on Portrait feature promises
• 24-hour turnaround — delivered to the email on your Stripe receipt after checkout and intake

Human rewrite from your current English Portrait listing — not a machine translation dump. Default $79 scope is Connect listing metadata; bundle additional caption lines via the AppLocale product page if needed.

FAQ

Does shooting Portrait Mode auto-fill my China App Store listing?

No. Portrait album organization and depth-effect classification control runtime library behavior — they do not create or fill a Simplified Chinese localization row. If zh-Hans name, subtitle, keywords, description, or screenshot caption fields are empty or still English, the China storefront falls back to en-US copy.

Which App Store Connect fields does AppLocale rewrite?

Paste-ready Simplified Chinese for listing fields you specify: app name, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text when included, and screenshot overlay or caption lines such as Portrait, portrait photos, depth effect, find portraits, Portrait album, soft background blur, 人像, 人像相簿, 人像照片, 景深, 背景虚化, and 查找人像 — rewritten from your English originals.

Does AppLocale implement depth maps in code?

No. AppLocale rewrites App Store Connect listing metadata and screenshot caption text only. PhotoKit Portrait album organization, depth-effect classification UI, and portrait browsing engineering are outside AppLocale scope.

How is this different from Portrait Mode, Selfies, and Live Photos pages?

Portrait album listing copy covers Photos → Albums → Portrait — depth-effect stills, find portraits vs Recents or Selfies or Live Photos, distinguish Portrait from Screenshots or general library on gallery frames. Portrait Mode listing copy covers Camera capture-mode marketing. Media Types listing copy covers the format-album hub. Selfies listing copy covers front-camera album marketing. Live Photos listing copy covers motion-still album marketing. Videos listing copy covers video-clip album marketing. Screenshots listing copy covers screen-capture album marketing. Favorites listing copy covers starred-collection marketing. Each surface has a separate guide.

Why do my Portrait screenshot captions still say Portrait in English on China?

Screenshot overlay lines and caption fields are per localization in App Store Connect. If you never filled zh-Hans caption fields — or pasted English into the Chinese screenshot set — China buyers see Latin script on frames meant to signal 人像相簿, 人像, or 景深 value.

Should zh-Hans copy use 人像相簿 or 人像模式?

人像相簿 and 人像 fit Portrait album and depth-effect portrait marketing. 人像模式 fits Camera Portrait Mode capture tutorials — a different shop guide. AppLocale picks phrasing that matches your English claims and screenshot frames.

What do I send after AppLocale payment?

Your live App Store listing URL, current English (or partial zh-Hans) name, subtitle, keywords, description, screenshot overlay lines with frame order noted, which frames show Portrait album or depth-effect grid UI, and target locale (zh-Hans). Reply from the email address on your Stripe receipt — we deliver to that Stripe email within 24 hours.

Will zh-Hans Portrait copy improve China rankings?

We do not guarantee ranking, browse placement, or download lift. Complete zh-Hans metadata helps users who already find your page understand Portrait album value in their language — it is not a placement hack.
