Ratings and reviews

Issue with image capture. When trying the first phase of Nid verification even though the image is crisp, perfect lighting and most certainly readable it complains about taking it at a right angle and more light. You should fix this issue. And the top of it there is no option to turn on the flash if light is such a major problem. Update: reply was pretty fast and fixed

UI is decent and intuitive, however the app in it's current state is not usuable for me. At first I wasn't even receiving any OTP during registration, then an update fixed it. Now I am unable to input almost 90% of the alphabets in the English language while typing in my address. It only accepts a few characters like "A, L, B, N" the rest doesn't appear when I type in. Copying and pasting them also doesn't fix the problem. Unusable!

Interface is clean and smooth but failed to submit so called live liveness test. Very disappointed. tried probably 20 or more times outdoor indoor even better camera phone but no luck. This kind of limitations violate my right to vote. contacted the help but same answer from the support no real solution to my problem. sounds like they don't care if I vote or not . Further update: I did email them, phoned them, even contacted on WhatsApp every single time same answer no real solution.
