Microsoft’s Research team is at it again with a new app for the iPhone. This time, the tech company claims the Microsoft Pix can take better shots than the default iPhone app. This “smarter camera app” makes use of artificial intelligence to do things like adjust camera settings, automatically enhance shots, and choose which image is the best out of a burst of photos. The app has more automatic enhancements for focus, color, and exposure if it sees people in the photo. Microsoft Pix also has a Live Photos-like feature that stitches together burst frames and creates a looping video.

You can see the difference between the original and enhanced shots with a toggle button within the app. The app is already available for free download on the App Store.
