5 Best Passport Photo Apps For Galaxy S9
Even though passport photos aren’t used very often, they can still cost quite a bit of money to print off at a store that advertises passport photos. The material cost isn’t much more than 50 cents, but you’re still looking at paying upwards of $20 or more for your passport photo. Couple that with the government fees and your total price is outrageous. Luckily, you can cost down on costs at least a little bit by using your smartphone. Download a passport photo to your Galaxy S9, follow the instructions to take a photo, and you can get your passport photo at 3/4 the cost of what they would charge you at the store.
If your interest is piqued, but you’re not sure what to download for your passport photos, then be sure to follow along with us below. We’re showing you our top picks.
Passport ID Photo Maker Studio
First up on our list is a passport maker called Passport ID Photo Maker Studio. One of the best things that this app can do is crop any photo for passport and visa applications, as well as licenses. It meets the requirements that the criteria most countries have put out for official government photos.
You can take your photo with the app and get it all setup so that all you have to do is print. Then, just take your file over to Office Depot, Walgreens, or another place and just pay the few cents it costs to print off the photo. You’re saving yourself a good $10 – $20 through this method.

Passport Size Photo Maker
Passport Size Photo Maker is similar to Passport ID Photo Maker Studio, but there are a few unique features that make it stand out from the rest. Passport Size Photo Maker supports passports and visa application photos for 150 different countries. With this app, you don’t need to head to a studio to get your passport photo taken, edited, and cropped at government regulation — you can adjust all of the necessary elements right in the app: white balance, brightness, contrast, edit the background, and so much more. If you don’t want to edit your photo yourself, it does have some auto-edit tools that allow you to automatically make your photo passport- or visa-ready.

ID Photo Free
ID Photo Free, as you might expect, is similar to the other passport photo creators on this list, allowing you to essentially create a passport photo or photo for a visa application that meets the criteria that many countries and governments have set forth. The neat thing about this application is that it guides you through the process of taking your passport photo and getting it ready for printing — the neat thing about ID Photo Free, as the name implies, is that it’s a free download and the features can be used without any in-app purchases. You will have to take your newly created passport photo to a store to have them printed, but that’ll be a fraction of the cost of what having the store doing the whole process would cost.

Passport Photo Booth
Passport Photo Booth does the same thing as the other passport photo makers on our list. It takes you through the process of making a passport photo, but one of the unique things about this app is that you can actually have your newly taken photos shipped to you by the developer. It’ll cost you $6, which is still cheaper than having the store do the whole passport photo process. However, you still might find it cheaper to get your passport photo taken and editing by this app, and then just take the file to the store to have it printed off.

Passport Photo ID Studio
Passport Photo ID Studio is last up on our list, but it’s another excellent option for creating your passport photo. Like we mentioned, this one essentially does the same thing, but Passport Photo ID Studio actually has extensive editing tools for you to create the perfect passport or visa photo. Check it out for yourself at the link below.
