One thing to remember while using Apollo is that the lighting works best only when your photos have even lighting. It doesn’t work well with photos that have deep shadows or strong highlights. The more crisp and steady your photos are, the better the lighting effects.
The developers of Apollo have stated that although the app is designed for easy use, mastering the art of getting the perfect lighting may take some time. So practice, practice, practice.

Also remember that Apollo may not recognize the portrait photos in your gallery if your photos lack depth data. This may happen due to a number of reasons such as when the photo was not taken with the default iPhone camera app or was taken on a phone running a version of iOS prior to 11.

You can pick up Apollo from the App for $0.99. If you do a lot of post processing work on your iPhone photos, this app is sure to add value to your work.
