★★★★ Eleanor Costanza 5/6/2026
product misrepresented
★★★★ Damian Krolevetskyi 5/5/2026
this application is not compatible to Canadian governmental standards and photos haven't been made by the app couldn't be used for the passport or PR applications. The main reason that during applying you should provide details of the commercial photographer and the app not provide it.
★★★★ Stephane Saury 5/5/2026 v3.5.1
useless for ANTS in France, no code was provided with the photo, which was very bad, chatgpt did better, lost 6€
★★★★ Jai Paraskevas 5/5/2026 v3.5.1
photos weren't accepted. had to get the done somewhere else because the background photoaid put in was too blue.
★★★★ BURAKCAN KORKMAZ 5/4/2026
16 euro photo too much in the shop 3 euro also with print ....
★★★★ Ifeoma Monye 5/3/2026 v3.5.0
None of the photos met the requirements after wasting $36.
★★★★ Nick Fernandez 4/30/2026 v3.4.0
why does a glorified camera app make me pay $17 for a single photo?
★★★★ Charlotte Palacios 4/30/2026 v3.4.0
The app makes you think your photos will be ready for pickup at Walgreens, but that’s completely false. I went to the store and they had no idea about any order. You’re NOT paying for a real pickup - just a file, disguised as a service. Waste of money and time. Avoid this app.
★★★★ Zach Huber 4/29/2026 v3.4.0
absolute trash
★★★★ Adit G 4/28/2026 v3.4.0
They bait you in and then try to charge you for the photo. No thank you
★★★★ SM N 4/28/2026 v3.4.0
pay to download and keep ur photo.
★★★★ Rob M 4/24/2026 v3.4.0
absolute rip off in my opinion. £8.60 for something to PRINT AT HOME!
★★★★ FANTABULOUS FINDS 4/23/2026 v3.4.0
PROMISED DOUBLE MONEY BACK IF NOT ACCEPTED! NOPE! I SENT COPY OF RECEIPT FOR NEW PASSPORT PHOTOS BECAUSE I NEEDED IT RIGHT THEN AND THAT WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH! THEY TELL ME NOW I HAVE TO HAVE STATEMENT FROM THE CONSULATE IN ATLANTA STATING IT WASN'T ACCEPTED. AS IF I WANT TO HAVE DUPLICATE PASSPORT PHOTOS MADE FOR FUN!!! NOT TRUSTWORTHY!!!!!!
★★★★ Alvin Henry 4/23/2026 v3.4.0
not free. avoid. you must buy via them. same price as AAA and they have dsl cameras at my branch.
★★★★ n k 4/21/2026 v3.4.0
app is fine but passport Canada won't accept this method by policy
★★★★ Pinny 4/20/2026 v3.4.0
no UK passport option
★★★★ Jasmine 4/20/2026 v3.4.0
Images are not up to standard for Australian passport use - heavy use of AI in the images. They are unable to refund on this basis but will offer to retake the photos. kind of difficult when you're already at the post office with their images though. customer service response is good but overerall wasn't worth the money.
★★★★ Matt Roberts 4/19/2026
just wants to sell you stuff. no need to use apps like this. I just followed guidelines on line and used my y normal camera.
★★★★ Go Pro 4/19/2026 v3.4.0
terrible, slow refund, you got AI robot to "help". dont waste your time, energy and money.
★★★★ Mr Jeronimo 4/17/2026 v3.4.0
Nonsense. Waste of time. Endless claims it passed AI only to be rejected by their "humans". Sneakily kept trying to add additional photos (at additional cost, of course, every retake). Then put my account on "hold" and just told me to email a bunch of pics in to them for them to sort out. Ridiculous approach and clearly not a good AI or Human facing application either. Lost the will to live. They had better refund me.
★★★★ Ray Flint 4/17/2026 v3.4.0
fake do not download they want money for taking your own picture please nann this app it's not free I took it just using my phone no app needed it was accepted for passport you don't need a app you pay for that service it's ridiculous
★★★★ Shivam MEENA 4/17/2026
good
★★★★ Cassandra Turner 4/16/2026 v3.4.0
App doesn't even let you download your own photo for free
★★★★ David Orozco 4/16/2026 v3.4.0
I don't need to print anything, why charging
★★★★ Paulo Flores cadenas 4/16/2026 v3.4.0
scam 2 times
★★★★ alan butchart 4/16/2026 v3.4.0
cumbersome and drops out looking for wifi, accept button did not work multiple times. I had to shut the app down to get it to work again and hence charged me twice.
★★★★ Ben Deutsch 4/14/2026 v3.4.0
can't take a photo offline
★★★★ Mike Jensen 4/13/2026 v3.4.0
it said my photo was verified to meet all the requirements for what I was using it for but after I paid it said it was verified and an expert had to make adjustments.
★★★★ roman d 4/13/2026 v3.4.0
This is a fully paid application; the only available output option is printing via pre-configured services.
★★★★ Jodie Solomon 4/13/2026 v3.4.0
photos got rejected 3 times on passport application
★★★★ Helen Goldsmith 4/12/2026 v3.4.0
very poor still havent got my photos all i was offered was £3 delivery charge or to reship not very happy they say within 3 days its been about 10 days now
★★★★ ANSHUL SINGH 4/12/2026 v3.4.0
Adding to passport size photo will add the photo and having a show in it is not correct in the image.
★★★★★ Rebecca Allen 5/3/2026 v3.5.0
Photo colour balance looked super weird with an unnecessarily stark white background and dark photo. But above all, it also got rejected because hair was on my face - isn't that what we are paying for? Peace of mind? And there is no apparent way to track shipping or claim the stated refund for rejections. So the app feels like BS.
★★★★★ Charles Fisher 4/27/2026
This app is not listed with "in-app purchases." Nothing is free in this app that I can see.
