worked got my passport in two weeks, no issues
I was a little reluctant to use this app, considering how picky they are about the passport photo. I ended up giving it a try. I used to big white blanket and had all of my children and husband sit outside to get a clear pic. You must take off all accessories and make sure there are no shadows. The white background looks a little off-white but they were still OK. I submitted all six and got the family our passports in two weeks. No issues. The only way that this app can be improved is to allow a filter to brighten & whiten the background.I will use again. Saved me about $80!!Fatcat54321
Developer Response
Thank you for the feedback! I've noted your suggestions for improvement.Remarkable!!
So easy to use. Great instructions. User friendly. 25% of the cost anywhere else. Quick delivery. Is there more? Yes... there was a slight shadow in one of my pics. The Passport Booth support department contacted me by email saying that the picture may not be acceptable to the US passport office (shadows are not good). I was advised to retake the pictures even thought they had already printed and mailed the "bad" pics. They said that there would be no charge if I resubmitted the original order. I did and within 24 hours I was credited with a refund. I only hope that other developers follow the lead of this company. You guys are the best !!!DelrayCPA
Very handy app
Taking the picture was great – super easy and the option to take multiple images until you get one you like. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that I was never given the option to upload it to a Walgreens or CVS store. Only the mail order option for 5.95. No big deal, just would've preferred the other since it was advertised that way.luckylady412
Not that great
The recent reviews are so gushy, I smelled a rat. I agree that it's nice being able to take multiple pics. And doing it yourself rather than paying someone else such an inflated price is on target. But none of the raves mention the part that is actual work--the part the critical reviews DO mention, and that's getting the pic you like actually printed. Nope, Walgreens does not have a 2x2 option. Also, this app could be improved if it automatically had the required non-textured white background. It's a good start, but not worth the gush.JandMilo
Are you kidding me!?!?
12/26 Update:Just when I thought v1 couldn't get any better, they release v3. My panties got wet when I saw an update was available! (Jk). I don't really use the new features but maybe one day when I have the need. For now I'll stick w the original features... Tough to teach an old dog new tricks.
Here is my original review of v1.0: Not sure why this app is called passport booth because I have used this for multiple purposes. I got a visa because of this and renewed my passport. Then I used it for other photos which I created a collage and used as my phones background. Unbelievably cheap pricing for the lazy who want the photos shipped. Otherwise it's free when you do it yourself.AlWorkIphone1
What a great convenience!
The new version is even better. More user friendly. No complaints at all! I needed to get a passport photo in a short amount of time. I heard about this app and decided to give it a try. Instead of going to Riteaid and paying more, I was able to take my passport photo on my app and save money. I already recommended it to all my colleagues.2548462737
Works as Promised
Bold claims and bold results. Just make sure that the lighting is appropriate for the "final" pic you decide to go with. I reviewed my wife's final pic before she submit for processing and delivery and I had her redo it. (She tends to have a problem w following directions). Anyway, make sure there are no shines or shadows anywhere on your face and that's the true test of perfection. Delivery time was approx 5 business days for me but clearly this is YMMV based on your location.ChristmasStory4555
Very user friendly and great update
I used the first version of this app last year for my passport renewal and it simply worked flawlessly. I saved about $10. The update made the app even easier to use. I love the chin and head guiding lines and the double checking screen is a great feature. 5 stars for this app and I have already recommended this app to my friends that ask me where to take passport photos. I tell them to do it on their phones :)
Update: loving the new feature where i can save the photos straight to my camera roll and preview them much easier. 5 stars again for this app.Jl422

Easy and useful! I needed some quick prints since I had to rush renewal of a passport (don't wait until the last minute, but if u have to renew a passport there are places that will renew on same day as long as you have your photos ready.) Got my prints super timely, got my passport the next day and off I went! Pictures were clean as wel.The ando man
Pleasantly surprised - multi use
12/14 update based on new version: First off I didn't know apps like this existed. All my life I have been wasting money at Walgreens for passport photos and at premium prices. And what's worse is the Walgreens photo shooters have taken photos that did not fit the standards. With this app I can keep retaking as many times as I want until I get the perfect settings. After all this is going in your passport so you deserve to be as picky as you want. Don't like your smile in that one, retake w a push of a button. It also works for visa photos too.
Finally I also use this to create collages. I doubt anyone would use it for this feature but it was a pleasant surprise.Cybaslacka
