I have to submit a document for employment and they want my passport but my passport photo is 5.49 MB and they say you can’t upload anything more than 5 MB. How can I shrink that file on my android phone without paying some service?

    5+ MB sounds like a PNG or the like. Open in photo editor and save as jpg. That should fix it.
