Smartphone iD
Dakar, Senegal
What it is
Smartphone iD helps users create passport and identity photos with a phone or its web tool. It supports passport, visa, green card and driver's-license photos, applying requirements from the U.S. Department of State, USCIS and other authorities for selected U.S. documents. Photos are analyzed by artificial intelligence and then reviewed by a human expert. After validation, users receive a digital photo and printable photo sheet; professional printing by post is optional. Photos that require expert review are usually approved and emailed within 30 minutes to one hour. If an authority rejects a photo, the service offers a free retake or refund when official proof of rejection is provided. The app is available on Android and iOS, as well as through a web tool. Purchases are one-time, with no subscription or recurring fees. The Digital photo with full verification plan costs $8.50, paid once, with the exact price varying by document. The ePhoto code costs €599, paid once and varies by country and procedure. Users can delete personal data from the app, permanently removing deleted photos from the databases.
