In recent years, we have seen how the background of the captures we make with our smartphone has become something expendable, as long as it is not fully focused. With the launch of the iPhone 8, Apple introduced a new function that allowed us, among other functions, to add a black background to our selfies.
By adding this black background, it disappeared completely, something that I am sure that on more than one occasion it comes to us like pearls. Unfortunately, this function is only available in selfie mode, so if we want to replace the background of any other photograph we have taken, this function is not useful for us. For this, we have other applications at our disposal.
Background Eraser, as its name indicates, is an application that only performs this function: remove background from photos quickly and easily and without the need to have knowledge of photography or editing.
The operation of this application is very simple since we only have to drag the image from which we want to eliminate the background so that it begins to do its work. If the background differs greatly from the foreground, the application will have no problem to remove it practically by magic.
However, if both the subject and the background, they have the same focal point, we are going to have to give the application a hand in order to obtain the results we are looking for.
Background Eraser is available on the Mac App Store for 2,29 euros. It is available in Spanish, so the language will not be a problem when interacting with it. In the Mac App Store we can find other applications that in addition to allowing us to erase the background, do more functions, but if we want one that only performs this function, this application is the one you are looking for.
