PassportCAM is an application that would turn your iPhone into a passport camera. You no longer need to go to photo booths, or professional photographers to get your passport (ID) photo, instead, you can do it all by yourself with a few touches on your iPhone and print your passport photo onto a photo printer. In this version, US style passport photo (2x2in) is supported.
Here are the instructions for the iPhone/iPod Touch users.
- Launch the "PassportCAM" application.
- Select "Camera" if you want to take a picture of yourself. Or alternatively you can select "Album" to use a picture already in your photo album. For iPod Touch users, you can only choose the second option and go to step 4.
- Take a shot at yourself (with the aid of other people if needed), make sure the background color is consistent with the requirements of a passport photo.
- Zoom/Pan your head to fit into the oval on the screen, make sure the size of the head never exceeds the oval. Touch "Next".
- Pan your face and make the eyes are visible from the gap in the middle. Touch "Next".
- Now you can preview the passport photo that is about to be generated. You can zoom/pan the picture to look into more details. If you are happy at it, touch "Save".
- The save process will take approximately 10 seconds to finish. The photo will be saved into "Saved Photo" folder.
- Now you will be offered 2 printing options. Once you get either of the printing apps installed, you can print the generated photo from "Saved Photo" folder into your printer. Or alternatively you can sync the photo back to your PC/MAC and print your photos from there. Make sure the print is 4x6in though.
