Portrait Mode App Store Listing in Simplified Chinese — 人像模式, Depth of Field, Studio Light & 影棚灯光 zh-Hans Copy
Your iOS camera or photo app markets iPhone Camera Portrait Mode on the product page — Portrait Mode, Depth of Field, soft background blur, sharp subject focus, Studio Light portrait lighting effects inside Portrait Mode, gallery frames with a Portrait picker, or screenshot captions that show before-and-after blur comparisons — and the US listing looks polished.
Open the same app on the China storefront and buyers still land on an English product page.
Title, subtitle, description, and screenshot overlays that read "Portrait Mode", "Depth of Field", or "Studio Light" in Latin script while system Camera on Chinese iPhones labels the same feature 人像模式 or 景深.
Shipping portrait blur or depth-of-field support in the binary does not auto-fill a Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans) localization row.
AppLocale writes paste-ready zh-Hans listing copy for those Connect fields — not depth-map segmentation code, not background-blur pipeline engineering, not portrait lighting sample photo design.
Operator guidance only — no ranking guarantee, not legal advice, not investment advice. Seller: Fortune Insight, LLC.
Western indie iOS developers — US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia — who:
Ship a camera or portrait photography app that markets Portrait Mode, depth-of-field still photos, or background blur at capture as a buyer-facing feature — soft bokeh backgrounds, subject isolation, Portrait lighting picker, or Studio Light / Natural Light / Stage Light effects shown on still-photo gallery frames
Finished the en-US listing — name, subtitle, keywords, description, and Portrait Mode-oriented screenshot captions — and passed US App Review
Already support portrait blur, depth-of-field capture, or complementary Portrait Mode flows in the app (not looking for depth-map or segmentation engineering help here)
Enabled the China storefront but the zh-Hans product page still shows English copy or untranslated Portrait Mode badge lines on screenshots
Need paste-ready zh-Hans listing fields — not an engineer for depth-map models, not a designer to re-render before-and-after blur comparison PNGs
If your app markets Photographic Styles still-photo tone presets — Rich Contrast, Vibrant, Warm, Cool — not portrait blur, see Photographic Styles listing (zh-Hans) — 摄影风格 / 丰富对比度 is tone grading, not 人像模式. If Cinematic Mode shallow-depth video dominates the page, that is separate (浅景深电影效果视频 — video, not still Portrait Mode). If Night Mode low-light capture leads, that is separate (夜间模式). If Macro extreme close-ups lead, see Macro listing (zh-Hans). If Action Mode handheld video stabilization leads, see Action Mode listing (zh-Hans). If Center Stage auto framing on video calls is the hero, see Center Stage listing (zh-Hans). If Continuity Camera iPhone-as-Mac-webcam portrait framing leads, see Continuity Camera listing (zh-Hans). If general Take Photo capture without Portrait Mode as the hero story, see In-app Camera listing (zh-Hans).
Portrait Mode engineering vs zh-Hans listing copy — two different jobs
Teams assume Apple's Portrait Mode rollout covers storefront language. Xcode, system frameworks, and Connect actually separate in-app depth-of-field capture from product-page copy:
Camera Portrait Mode — Apple Camera feature that captures still photos with shallow depth of field — soft background blur with the subject in sharp focus on supported iPhone models. Labeled 人像模式 or 人像 in zh-Hans system UI. Controls in-device capture behavior — not App Store language.
Depth of Field & background blur — computational depth maps and segmentation that isolate the subject from the background. Your listing may mention Depth of Field or Bokeh; building blur pipelines is engineering work, not Connect metadata.
Studio Light portrait lighting (within Portrait Mode) — Natural Light, Studio Light, Stage Light, and Studio Light Mono effects applied to still portraits inside Portrait Mode. zh-Hans system UI often uses 影棚灯光, 自然光, or 舞台光. These are portrait lighting styles inside Portrait Mode — not a separate Studio Light product page.
AVFoundation & depth capture — camera session code that reads depth data and drives the portrait viewfinder. Entitlements and capture wiring are platform work — distinct from the zh-Hans description paragraph that explains Portrait Mode value to buyers.
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 Mode support in the binary.
A working Portrait Mode story and a localized China listing are both required when you sell on the China storefront — neither replaces the other.
Portrait Mode vs Photographic Styles vs Cinematic Mode vs Night Mode vs Macro vs Action Mode vs Center Stage vs Continuity Camera — do not conflate
US/EU indie teams often merge eight Camera string families. This page covers product-page listing copy that markets Portrait Mode — shallow depth-of-field still photography with optional Studio Light portrait lighting inside Portrait Mode — not tone presets, not cinematic video blur, not low-light modes, not macro close-ups, not video stabilization, not auto framing, and not webcam portrait routing:
Portrait Mode & depth-of-field stills (this page) — paragraphs and frame text explaining "Portrait Mode", "Portrait", "Depth of Field", "Background blur", "Bokeh", "Subject focus", "Studio Light", "Natural Light", "Stage Light", 人像模式, 人像, 景深, 背景虚化, 影棚灯光. Still-photo shallow depth of field — soft background blur with subject in focus.
Photographic Styles listing copy (different) — still-photo tone presets at capture: Photographic Styles, Rich Contrast, Vibrant, Warm, Cool, 摄影风格, 丰富对比度, 鲜明, 暖色, 冷色. Photo color grading — not portrait background blur. Covered on our Photographic Styles guide.
Cinematic Mode listing copy (different) — shallow-depth cinematic video look with focus transitions: Cinematic Mode, 浅景深电影效果视频, 电影效果模式. Depth-of-field video storytelling — not still-photo Portrait Mode.
Night Mode listing copy (different) — low-light capture with longer exposure and computational blending: Night Mode, 夜间模式, 夜景模式. Low-light photography — not daytime portrait blur marketing. Covered on our Night Mode guide.
Macro listing copy (different) — extreme close-up still photography at minimum focus distance: Macro, Macro Control, 微距, 微距近拍. Close-up detail shots — not portrait background blur. Covered on our Macro guide.
Action Mode listing copy (different) — extra video stabilization for handheld walking and running footage: Action Mode, 动作模式, 运动防抖. Video stabilization — not still-photo portrait blur. Covered on our Action Mode guide.
Center Stage listing copy (different) — auto framing that keeps you centered during FaceTime and video calls: Center Stage, 人物居中, 居中构图. Pan-and-track video framing — not still-photo depth-of-field blur. Covered on our Center Stage guide.
Continuity Camera portrait framing (different) — iPhone-as-Mac-webcam with optional portrait background blur during Mac video calls. Webcam routing story — not iPhone Camera still-photo Portrait Mode marketing. Covered on our Continuity Camera guide.
Portrait Mode blurs backgrounds on still photos. Photographic Styles adjusts tone at capture. Cinematic Mode adds cinematic depth-of-field to video. Night Mode brightens low-light shots. Macro captures extreme close-ups. Action Mode stabilizes handheld video. Center Stage auto-frames video calls. Continuity Camera routes iPhone camera to Mac. Mixing vocabulary across those surfaces on one product page reads like confused localization — scope each screenshot frame to the workflow it actually shows.
What China buyers see when zh-Hans Portrait Mode copy is missing
Camera and portrait photography apps browsing the China App Store evaluate depth-of-field trust 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 positioning with 人像模式 or 景深
Untranslated Portrait badges on screenshots — overlay lines like "Portrait Mode", "Depth of Field", "Background blur", "Studio Light", or "Bokeh" remain English on zh-Hans gallery frames
Portrait value in English — description opens with US Portrait marketing ("Beautiful background blur") that China readers skim past or misread
Keyword field still en-US — buyers search 人像模式, 人像, 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
Conflating Portrait Mode with Photographic Styles — zh-Hans copy mentions 摄影风格 or 丰富对比度 when screenshots show background blur stills — see Photographic Styles listing (zh-Hans)
Conflating Portrait Mode with Cinematic Mode — 电影效果 or 浅景深视频 language on frames that show still-photo portrait blur — Cinematic Mode is video, not still Portrait Mode
Conflating Studio Light with a separate feature — 影棚灯光 belongs inside Portrait Mode lighting picker copy — not a standalone Studio Light page when your English source markets it as a Portrait lighting effect
Conflating Portrait Mode with Center Stage — 人物居中 auto-framing language on frames that show still-photo blur — different buyer promises
Better zh-Hans listing copy helps portrait-aware buyers understand depth-of-field benefits before install. It does not replace depth-map engineering, segmentation integration, or Apple's review decisions.
Portrait Mode-specific listing copy — what translates differently
Depth-of-field listings use vocabulary general utility guides rarely cover. zh-Hans copy should reflect how Chinese App Store readers describe Apple's Portrait Mode features — not a literal paste of US marketing:
Portrait Mode phrasing
US pages use "Portrait Mode", "Portrait", "Depth of Field", "Background blur", "Bokeh", or "Subject focus." Apple's Simplified Chinese Camera vocabulary often uses 人像模式 for the feature, 人像 for people-focused portraits, and 景深 or 背景虚化 for depth-of-field blur. AppLocale aligns phrasing with Apple's consumer-facing terms while keeping your app's voice — not inventing portrait capabilities your app does not support.
Studio Light inside Portrait Mode
When your English listing markets Studio Light, Natural Light, Stage Light, or Studio Light Mono as portrait lighting effects inside Portrait Mode, zh-Hans overlays may use 影棚灯光, 自然光, 舞台光, or 单色舞台光 — lighting styles within Portrait Mode, not a separate Studio Light product story. Do not split Studio Light into its own listing page when your screenshots show it inside the Portrait lighting picker.
Before-and-after blur comparisons
Portrait marketing often shows side-by-side standard vs Portrait Mode frames. Chinese buyers expect concise labels: 人像模式对比, 背景虚化效果, or 景深虚化 — not English "Before / After" pasted through machine translation without context.
Subject types per frame
Screenshot overlays differ by subject — people portraits, pet portraits, product shots with blur. Chinese buyers expect per-frame captions: 人像虚化 for people, 宠物人像 for pets, 产品景深 for product isolation — not one generic "强大相机" string on every frame.
Do not conflate with Photographic Styles, Cinematic Mode, or Macro
Portrait Mode blurs backgrounds on still photos. Photographic Styles adjusts tone at capture. Cinematic Mode adds shallow-depth cinematic look to video. Macro captures extreme close-ups at minimum focus distance. If your app supports multiple Camera surfaces, scope each screenshot frame accurately.
Subtitle and keyword packing
The 30-character subtitle and 100-character keyword field need portrait search terms Chinese buyers type — see Simplified Chinese keywords & subtitle for field mechanics. Terms like 人像模式, 人像, and 景深 each signal different intent from Photographic Styles 摄影风格 keywords or Macro 微距 keywords.
English Portrait Mode phrases China buyers still see
Common en-US marketing lines that leak onto the China product page when zh-Hans caption fields are empty or copy-pasted from the US gallery:
Portrait Mode — Apple-branded Camera portrait badge on iPhone screenshot overlays
Depth of Field — shallow-focus marketing headline on gallery frames
Portrait lighting — umbrella term for lighting effects within Portrait Mode
Chinese iPhone buyers searching for 人像模式, 人像, or 景深 still land on English-only overlays — that reads as an incomplete localization pass, not a bilingual portrait photography app.
Common mistakes on Portrait Mode zh-Hans listings
Assuming portrait blur integration localizes automatically — depth-of-field shipped in the binary; zh-Hans row never added or left blank
Only translating the description — subtitle, keywords, and Portrait Mode screenshot caption lines still English
Reusing US Portrait badges verbatim — Latin "Portrait Mode" and "Studio Light" badges on zh-Hans screenshots signal an unfinished localization
Conflating Portrait Mode with Photographic Styles — listing copy about 摄影风格 or 丰富对比度 when screenshots actually show background blur stills
Conflating Portrait Mode with Cinematic Mode — 电影效果 or 浅景深视频 language belongs on cinematic video vocabulary — not still-photo portrait blur
Conflating Portrait Mode with Night Mode — 夜间模式 language on frames that show daytime portrait blur demos
Conflating Portrait Mode with Macro — 微距 or 微距近拍 language belongs on close-up photography vocabulary — not portrait background blur
Conflating Portrait Mode with Center Stage — 人物居中 auto-framing language belongs on the Center Stage guide, not still-photo blur copy
Conflating Portrait Mode with Continuity Camera — Mac webcam portrait framing belongs on the Continuity Camera guide, not iPhone Camera Portrait Mode marketing
Creating a separate Studio Light page — Studio Light is a portrait lighting effect within Portrait Mode when your English listing shows it inside the Portrait picker — not a standalone feature page
Translating the in-app Portrait toggle label only — system Camera UI may show Chinese from iOS while the App Store product page stays English
Expecting AppLocale to implement depth maps or design blur comparison PNGs — segmentation APIs, blur pipeline code, and portrait sample photo production are outside listing rewrite
What good zh-Hans Portrait Mode listing copy looks like
Portrait-centric listings name the depth-of-field workflow in plain zh-Hans — not a word-for-word mirror of English brochure lines:
Subtitle — one clause on portrait or blur outcome; room for 人像模式 or 景深 within 30 characters — e.g. "人像模式，背景虚化" or "景深虚化，主体清晰"
Keywords — mix 人像模式, 人像, 景深, 背景虚化, and category nouns (摄影, 相机); avoid English-only "Portrait" stuffing — see Simplified Chinese keywords
Description — lead with the portrait blur workflow; mention Studio Light only when your app actually supports that Portrait lighting effect or equivalent depth-of-field capture
Screenshot overlays — short lines naming what the frame shows: 人像模式, 景深虚化, 影棚灯光 — not "Portrait Mode" pasted through machine translation
Voice match — same 你/您 and punctuation habits as your other zh-Hans fields
Honest scope — if your app supports portrait blur on people only but not objects, zh-Hans copy should not imply universal subject segmentation unless your English listing already claims it accurately
zh-Hans Portrait Mode captions can differ idiomatically from en-US overlays when the on-screen feature is the same — avoid mirroring comma-heavy English marketing onto iPhone art.
Connect checklist before you order Portrait Mode listing copy
Confirm China under Pricing and Availability — storefront enabled if you intend to sell there
Confirm Portrait Mode or depth-of-field features work in your build — note that we do not change depth-map segmentation, AVFoundation capture, or portal settings for you
Open App Store → Chinese (Simplified) — note whether the zh-Hans row exists and which text fields are empty vs English placeholder
Export English Portrait Mode marketing copy — current en-US title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text, and every screenshot overlay line ("Portrait Mode", "Depth of Field", "Background blur", "Studio Light", "Natural Light", "Stage Light", before-and-after blur frames)
Count screenshot frames — note how many iPhone slots show Portrait Mode UI, lighting picker, blur comparison, or subject-isolation marketing
Separate listing from in-app UI — listing rewrite does not cover storyboard strings or Portrait toggle labels inside the binary
Note which portrait paths you market — system Portrait Mode, in-app blur toggle, Studio Light lighting picker, people vs pet vs product portrait demos — so zh-Hans copy stays accurate to your English listing
Distinguish Portrait Mode from Photographic Styles or Cinematic Mode frames — tag which overlay lines are still-photo blur vs tone presets vs cinematic video so each caption gets accurate zh-Hans scope
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
For one Portrait Mode-marketing 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 Mode or depth-of-field phrasing within the ~30-character cap
Keywords — comma-separated zh-Hans search terms with rationale notes (人像模式, 人像, 景深 where relevant)
Description — buyer-readable body copy aligned with your English Portrait Mode listing meaning
Promotional text — when you include the 170-character promo field in scope
Screenshot overlay / caption lines — zh-Hans replacements for "Portrait Mode", "Depth of Field", "Studio Light", 人像模式, 人像, 景深, 影棚灯光, and similar frame text
English alignment — matching en-US field notes when both storefronts must stay consistent on portrait promises
24-hour turnaround — delivered to the email on your Stripe receipt after checkout and intake
Human rewrite from your current English Portrait Mode marketing listing — not a machine translation dump. Default $79 scope is Connect listing metadata; bundle IAP display names or promotional-only passes via the AppLocale product page if needed.
What AppLocale does not do
Does not implement Portrait Mode, depth-map segmentation, or background-blur capture flows
Does not wire Studio Light rendering, AVFoundation portrait pipelines, or system Camera Portrait integration in Swift
Does not generate, design, or re-export screenshot PNGs or before-and-after blur comparison photos
Does not write Photographic Styles still-photo tone preset listing copy — see the Photographic Styles guide for 摄影风格 marketing
Does not write Cinematic Mode shallow-depth video listing copy — different buyer promise and zh-Hans vocabulary
Does not write Night Mode low-light listing copy — separate Camera surface with different screenshot vocabulary
Does not write Macro close-up photography listing copy — see the Macro guide for 微距 marketing
Does not write Action Mode handheld video stabilization listing copy — see the Action Mode guide for 动作模式 marketing
Does not write Center Stage auto-framing listing copy — see the Center Stage guide for 人物居中 marketing
Does not write Continuity Camera webcam portrait framing listing copy — see the Continuity Camera guide

Does shipping Portrait Mode auto-translate my China listing?
No. Depth-of-field capture, background blur, and Studio Light portrait lighting inside Portrait Mode control device behavior — they do not create or fill a Simplified Chinese localization row. Empty or English zh-Hans fields mean China buyers see en-US fallback.
What listing fields does AppLocale rewrite for Portrait Mode apps?
Paste-ready Simplified Chinese (zh-Hans) copy for App Store Connect listing fields you specify: title, subtitle, keywords, description, promotional text when included, and screenshot overlay or caption lines — rewritten from your English Portrait Mode marketing originals.
Can AppLocale implement Portrait Mode or depth-map segmentation?
No. We deliver listing metadata copy only. Portrait blur engineering, Studio Light rendering, and blur-comparison photo design are outside AppLocale scope.
How is this different from Photographic Styles, Cinematic Mode, Night Mode, Macro, Action Mode, Center Stage, or Continuity Camera?
Portrait Mode copy markets shallow depth-of-field still photography — 人像模式, 人像, 景深, 影棚灯光. Photographic Styles copy markets still-photo tone presets — 摄影风格, 丰富对比度. Cinematic Mode copy markets shallow-depth cinematic video — 浅景深电影效果视频. Night Mode copy markets low-light capture — 夜间模式. Macro copy markets extreme close-ups — 微距, 微距近拍. Action Mode copy markets handheld video stabilization — 动作模式, 运动防抖. Center Stage copy markets auto framing on video calls — 人物居中. Continuity Camera copy markets iPhone-as-Mac-webcam portrait framing. Each surface has separate screenshot vocabulary.
Why do screenshot captions still say "Portrait Mode" in English on China?
Caption and overlay fields are managed per localization. If you filled en-US screenshot text but never saved zh-Hans caption lines — or uploaded the same English-overlay PNGs to the Chinese set — China buyers see Latin Portrait badges on the product page.
Should zh-Hans copy use 人像模式, 人像, 景深, or 影棚灯光 for Studio Light?
Each appears in Chinese storefront and search contexts. AppLocale picks phrasing that matches your English listing claims and screenshot overlays — 人像模式 for the feature, 人像 for people portraits, 景深 for depth-of-field blur, 影棚灯光 for Studio Light portrait lighting inside Portrait Mode — without inventing capabilities your app does not support.
What do I send after AppLocale payment?
Your live App Store listing URL, current English Portrait Mode marketing listing (title, subtitle, keywords, description, promo if used, all screenshot caption lines), screenshot frame counts, and target locale (zh-Hans). Reply from the email address on your Stripe receipt — we deliver to that Stripe email within 24 hours.
Will localized Portrait Mode listing copy improve Search ranking in China?
We do not guarantee keyword position, chart rank, or install growth. Complete zh-Hans metadata helps portrait-aware buyers who already found your page understand depth-of-field benefits in their language.
