Ratings and reviews

How does this App still have massive bugs??! It's wasted so much of my time with the onboarding, I keep doing the face scan and national ID and then it asks me to sign the data with my phone's fingerprint sensor and I keep getting an error message. How has noone solved this yet?! This is supposed to be a nationwide app. Totally unacceptable. It should have been thoroughly tested before releasing to the public with such basic fundamental issues.

Horrible application, how do you scan a qr if the app is on your phone. Beware was an excellent app. Edit: over half a year later and the same issue still appears. App needs a complete overhaul. EDIT: Years later still the same issue, such a shame.

This app can't allow you to access your own bank account. Even if you scan your face. I already access my government app, but still this app is telling me access is rejected. Very poor app and the developer is not enhancing the face scanner.
