About this app

The ReadID Me app (previously known as NFC Passport Reader) reads and verifies the NFC chip embedded in electronic passports, national identity cards and other ICAO compliant identity documents (ePassport, or, in ICAO 9309 terminology, Machine Readable Travel Documents: MRTD). The app optically scans (OCR) the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) to gain access to the embedded chip. It then reads the embedded chip using NFC and displays the biographical and biometric information of the document holder, as well as document information, after which security checks, such as Active Authentication, Chip Authentication and Passive Authentication , are performed and detailed results are shown.

The app also supports electronic driving licenses (eDL, ISO 18013, currently limited to Dutch driving licenses from after November 2014).

Doesn't scan my New Zealand drivers license as it doesn't have the white lines, also doesn't scan any chip in my passport at all. So that was about as far as I got, which is disappointing because I need this app to complete certain online tasks. It would be great if you could update the software so it's more compatible for Australia and NZ citizens.

it didn't scan what it was supposed to, and I tried the three different types you offer to select. I don't think it is working, and you said you fixed it, but it still doesn't scan anything. And it still isn't working. I just tried it again, and I have a US driving license 🙃

Scanned Irish passport first try. Open source and no personal data collecting apparently. Simple to use and effective.
