What PhotoGov is
PhotoGov is a passport photo maker. Selfies are cropped and sized to country-specific ID standards, with the service carefully scoping what it does: in jurisdictions restricting digital alteration, it only crops and sizes rather than altering backgrounds.
The site states it is independent of any government and that final acceptance belongs to the issuing authority, which is the honest framing ID tools need.
