Common questions

How do I take or choose a photo?

Choose Printed photo or Online application, then tap the camera button to take a photo or Choose photo to select one from your library. Camera permission is requested only when you choose to take a photo.

How do I replace a background?

After choosing a photo, tap Remove background (white) on the crop or review screen. Inspect the edges around hair and shoulders. You can restore the original background before sharing.

Will an edited photo be accepted for a passport?

Acceptance is decided by the receiving authority. UK and US digital passport guidance calls for an unedited photo, so an edited background may be rejected. For those applications, take a new photo against a suitable real background and check the UK guidance or US guidance before submitting.

What is the difference between print and online export?

Printed photo creates a cropped JPEG or a PDF print sheet at the size you choose. Online application can share the original file or an optional white-background JPEG. Check the destination’s current requirements before submitting.

Where are my photos and projects stored?

Photo processing happens on your iPhone. An editable print project is saved in the app only when you choose Save editable project. Use the project’s More options menu to delete it.
