Complyshot

Passport photos that actually get accepted

Complyshot guides the shot, measures your face against the real government specification — head height, eye line, background, focus, lighting — and exports a file at the exact pixel size and under the exact KB limit. Entirely on your iPhone, nothing uploaded. Free: no subscription, no paywall, no watermark.

Features

Built to pass, not to upsell

🎯

Guided Capture

On-screen guides show you where your head and eyes need to sit before you press the shutter, so you are not guessing and re-shooting.

📐

Measured, Not Guessed

Head height and eye line are measured with Apple's Vision framework against the numbers in the official specification — not eyeballed against a template.

Plain-Language Checklist

Every check passes or fails in words you can act on, before you export — so you find out here, not at the counter.

📦

Exact Size, Under the Ceiling

The exported file matches the required pixel dimensions and stays under the route’s KB limit. That is the whole point of the app.

🚫

No Fake Backgrounds

Complyshot never digitally replaces your background. Both the UK and US explicitly prohibit it, and photos that do it get rejected. Shoot against a real plain wall.

🔒

Nothing Ever Uploaded

Capture, measurement, checking and export all run on your iPhone. No servers, no account, no analytics, no tracking.

💰

Completely Free

No subscription, no in-app purchase, no watermark, no ads. The category is full of apps that paywall the export — this one does not.

🌍

Six Official Routes

US Passport, US Visa / DV Lottery, UK Passport, Schengen Visa, Canada Passport and Australia Passport, each with its own real requirements.

How It Works

Three steps to a compliant photo

1

Pick your route

Choose the passport or visa you are applying for. Complyshot loads that government’s actual requirements — dimensions, aspect ratio, head height, file-size ceiling.

2

Shoot or import, with guides

Use the guided camera against a plain, evenly lit wall, or import a photo you already have. The overlay shows you where the head and eye line need to land.

3

Check, then export

Read the pass/fail checklist, fix anything it flags, and export. You get a file at the exact required size, under the KB ceiling, saved straight to Photos.
