I love how simple this app was for me as an older person with limited vision/eyesight. The pictures are clear and they have many different options available such as changing backgrounds etc. There were no downsides at all but if you do not like using your phone camera then maybe try another option because there isn't much else to dislike about photoaiid. It really helped my daughter who needed her passport updated since she moved overseas. I like the fact that you can use your own phone instead of having to go out and buy a new one. This also saves me money since I don't have to have someone else take my photo. Sometimes the app doesn't work right so be sure to test it before you leave for an event. It really does save time and hassle. I am able to take photos of myself without having to pay someone else to do it.
