How to create an ID photo using an Android smartphone

Sometimes it happens that you have to take an ID photo and do not have the necessary information to do it. In this guide we will teach you a quick and free way to create one passport using the Android smartphone vostro.

Once the application is installed, at the first start you will find yourself in a screen like the one here. In this section you will be able to take a new photo, upload the passport photos you have already created and which are automatically saved in "My photos", or quickly switch to view some simple tips by tapping the "Photographer's guide".

Once tapped on the first item, which is the one that allows you to create a new passport photo, it will be necessary to go to indicate the format, the status of belonging, the resolution of the image to the app, take a new photo or import it directly from the smartphone library (in case you already have one at hand).

Our advice is to select a photo that has one White background, even if the application allows you to more or less easily remove the background in case you don't have one available. The app will proceed to properly crop the photo, retouch it to improve its quality a little and finally save it in the smartphone memory, being able to change the name and format (JPEG or PNG).
