Ratings and reviews

Hopeless. Since NIC made it mandatory for all govt email addresses, I have been using it and I have to say, it is one of the most badly designed and user unfriendly authentication apps I have come across. If you do not have the phone in your hand and immediately approve the log in, it's timed out. Even a delay of 2-3 seconds causes this. Hence we are required to initiate multiple log in attemps which in itself is another waste of time. I don't know how it's even rated 3stars+.

No device is registered now, yet it is showing device limit exceeded. Its showing error message even if notification was received but not able to login to account. Further i uninstalled it feom all devices i was trying to login with but still does not work. The service guys are still working on the issue. Still not able to login and it costs to the govt. The app needs to be rebuilt, minor bug fixes are not working it needs considerable amount of change to become at least useful.

Recently I lost my mobile phone, tried to use this on my other phone, it says device limit exceeded. There is no way for me to access my mail without this. Now I'm left high and dry. There should be way to de-register the device in such cases. Hope the team will look into it.
