What Passport Photo Maker does

Passport Photo Maker turns a phone photo into a photo sized for your chosen preset. You pick a size, capture or upload a photo, and set the background color; the app removes the original background with AI and exports a high-resolution image. It is designed to be usable without any photo-editing experience.
