Yes. All new US passports require a scheduled, in-person appointment. Both paperwork and photo need to be printed and submitted in person along with originals or certified copies of identification and proof-of-citizenship. You have to swear all information to be correct and sign in the presence of a government worker.

In years past the physical photo was laminated into the passport, and they needed two copies. These days only one is required and is scanned and printed into the passport page directly. So it's a step forward, but it's still a paperwork process and that's probably not changing for now.
