The rule everyone gets wrong

Not pure white. Light grey or cream.

Every other market we support (US, China, Schengen, India, Japan, Canada) uses a white background. The UK's gov.uk guidance is explicit: plain light-coloured — cream or light grey. This app composites onto that background by default, not white.

What we optimize for (UK visa photo)

The app guides composition toward the digital photo spec published on gov.uk. Always confirm the latest rules before you submit — government guidance can change without notice.

  • 630×810 px export — comfortably exceeds gov.uk's 600×750 px minimum, at the correct 35:45 aspect ratio.
  • Light grey/cream background — not white — matching gov.uk's stated rule.
  • Head height 64–76% of frame (29–34mm of a 45mm frame), the print-photo convention we also apply to the digital export.
  • JPEG size policy — export sized within gov.uk's 50 KB – 6 MB window.
  • No face reshaping — segmentation and cropping only; we don't slim or resize facial geometry.
  • Privacy — segmentation and matting run on your iPhone; no separate upload to our servers for processing.

This app targets the digital upload spec used for online visa/UKVI account applications. A printed 35×45mm photo (same physical size) is still used as a fallback at some VFS Global visa application centres — the same export works for both. Final acceptance is always at the discretion of UKVI or the visa application center you use.

Built for the UK visa photo rule

One tap from photo library to a compliant portrait on the correct background — sized and checked for gov.uk's guidance.

Auto cutout & correct backdrop

Apple Vision–powered segmentation removes busy backgrounds and composites onto light grey/cream — not white — the exact tone gov.uk asks for.

35×45mm crop & checklist

Framing and readouts aligned to the UK's reference proportions, exported at 630×810 px with head height held to 64–76%.

On-device only

Core image work stays on your phone. Purchase flows use Apple's systems; we don't run our own photo cloud for editing.

Same multilingual UI as our app family

Built-in language switcher: English, 简体中文, 繁體中文, Español, 日本語, Deutsch, Français.

Three steps

1

Pick a photo

Any clear front-facing shot from your library — more headroom makes composition easier.

2

One-tap process

Auto cutout to light grey/cream, crop to 35×45mm proportions, then review the animated checklist.

3

Unlock & export

Single consumable purchase per export — save to Photos and upload to your UKVI account.

Pay per export

No subscription — unlock one processed photo at a time, same model as our other apps.

Why not a photo studio?

Studios and chemists work great when you're already there — this app is for when you already have a decent phone photo and want a UKVI-ready file fast, privately, and repeatably.
