Questions people ask
Is my recording uploaded anywhere?
No. It is recorded by your browser and stays on your device until you download it. Nothing is sent to a server, and closing the page deletes anything you haven't downloaded.
Should the saved photo be mirrored?
Pick 'As others see you' for anything official or with text in it, so writing reads correctly. Pick 'Mirrored' if you want the photo to look exactly like the preview.
Can I use this for a passport photo?
Yes, as the starting photo. Stand against a plain light wall, face the light, and then open the passport photo maker for your country to crop and check it.
