I've taken passport/ID photos previously with no problems. I tried to take a passport photo with this app and was told 'face too close' each time. I tried many times to take a photo with same result each time. I gave up and uninstalled the app. Shame as seems a brilliant idea - if it worked! *UPDATE* I was asked to get someone to help me take a photo. šŸ™„ I was taking a photo of my husband from distances of 3ft to 12ft. I even took a photo of our settee and app still said 'face too close'!

I was a bit dubious at first about using this app for my driving licence photo, but after following the tips and guidelines on how to create a successful photo it was all done within minutes, the staff verifies the photo is usable and you can either have it posted or emailed to you. I didn't even have to leave the comfort of my own home which is an added bonus. Definitely recommend!!

Not a good app, they show you one picture frame when taking the picture, then a whole extended one when they process it, with babies not easy to have them in perfect position like adults, and it is not required either. Waste of 6 pounds. The picture was perfect on original then refused cuz other body parts are showing. They were not in frame when I took the picture!!!! I understand my hand can not be in the picture, but it was not in the frame or preview when I took it, plus UK law is different.

Hello, you have requested a photo for a British passport. For this application, the requested photo must be accurately cropped. With this cropping, the hand of an adult was visible on the photo, which is not accepted by the British government. This is why we have asked you to take the photo back for free. Thank you for your understanding.
