I think they already have a guide about how to use eVisa website, of course it is using a computer. Why don't use a computer, instead of your iPhone.

Maybe it’s easier on a computer because I suppose I’m only transferring contents of email for flight ticket ,accommodation etc

I took the photos on an iPhone, transferred them to my PC and made the application from that.

 

The main things to watch out for are that the photos are the right format, from memory jpg, and comply with their size limits.

Uploading from an android is simple I dont see how aj iphone would differ. Just save docs in correct upload format and size and upload. Easy.

You can't. Photos on phone, transfer to P.C. fill in application on P.C. You'll need a printer to print off your visa when it is dispatched to you in form of an PDF. And the best of luck ???? it's a nightmare.

Anyone that can afford an Iphone has a computer. Try the on switch.

Why nightmare? It was the best thing since slice bread ????. No need to collate forms and documents with pics, buy MO, take it to the PO and buy stamps for mailing along with the passport. Can't use the passport to leave the country while waiting for the visa. Now I do everything from the comfort of my desk. Why it is a nightmare?

Don’t want to sound to computer dumb but I transfer photos using a usb cable .Are they stored in a file or as photos on PC so I can just click on them to upload to the application?

I did pretty much the same.  I used a USB cable to transfer photos from iPhone to PC and saved them on the PC.  In fact I created a folder, or sub-folder, just for this one application.

 

I found the e-visa process a complete pain and I will do my best to avoid doing so again.  I wasn't working full time on the application but assembling all the documents, saving them, uploading them, filling in the form etc. took two days.  I have no idea why, if applying to London, they need three different photos of the applicant including the one in your passport and what on earth is the weird photo of the applicant holding the ID page of their passport next to their face for? 

 

This sort of online process just invites them to add on daft requirements without adding to their own burden.
