Turn a phone snapshot into a proper ID photo. An AI model finds the person and removes the original background, replacing it with white, blue, red or any colour you like. The photo is then cropped around the head to a standard size — 1-inch, 2-inch, 35×45mm for UK, EU and Schengen visas, 2×2in for US passports and more — at 300dpi, ready for online applications. You can also generate a 4×6" print sheet to take to a photo lab. The AI runs in your browser, so your portrait never leaves your device.

## How to use

1. Upload a front-facing photo with a simple background
2. Choose the photo size and background colour, then click Make ID photo
3. Fine-tune with the sliders and download the photo or the print sheet

## FAQ

### Which background colour should I use?

Most passports and visas require white or off-white. Some Chinese documents use blue or red. Always check the requirements of the office you are applying to.

### What resolution is the output?

Everything is rendered at 300dpi — for example 35×45mm becomes 413×531 pixels and 2×2in becomes 600×600 — which meets typical online upload and print requirements.

### Is it accepted for official passports?

Requirements vary by country, and some offices insist on photos taken on site. This tool is ideal for online applications, CVs and exams; for official documents, follow the issuing authority's rules.

### Are my files or data uploaded?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser with no network upload, and is discarded when you close the page.
