Ratings and reviews

Definitely not user friendly. In android version, it requires me to allow app to have an overlay or it won't continue (just as other Android users mentioned before). This is totally ridiculous. So I decided to do the "old fashion" way which is to apply via computer. I just had to compressed the passport picture using Adobe (free), and Biteable (free) to resize the self portrait photo to 700x700 px. Payment went through easy. I got approved!

An impossible app that ruins the reputation of the Korean government! No clear way to take a photo of your passport. The zip code and address look up is a complete mess: slow Internet connection will make it impossible for the server in Korea to auto populate options, and multiple alternate spelling of Korean addresses make it difficult choose. After you run through the gauntlet and reach the payment page, the app crashes or gets hung up! A shameful app!

Probably one of the worst app I've ever seen. For Android, goes directly to the android settings view without any information and cannot continue untill you allow app to have an overlay. After allowing it, you cannot submit passport picture. Won't take camera input for passport, it does for headshots. And it frequently crashes and kick you back and prone to errors without any explanations. This app is an embarrassment
