User Reviews

The app is convenient and easy to use when it works, allowing quick photo submissions and early registration. However, it suffers from stability issues (crashes, errors, connectivity), and a confusing requirement for a registration number to submit photos, which can prevent first-time applicants. Users also report a lack of status updates on processing times and limited support, making reliability the major concern despite its potential usefulness.
Pros
  • Easy to submit a photo
  • Convenient to submit paperwork ahead of time and receive a registration number
  • Simple and convenient when the app is functioning
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and app stops after the signature page or during use
  • Errors and connectivity issues (cannot connect to service, cannot take photo)
  • Requires an existing registration number to submit photos, which blocks first-time applicants

Has it worked for anyone? Or is it still a valid option to use? I've done everything correctly and photos were approved. This was 2 years ago and no reply to concerns about my application, what stage it was in, was it not approved in the end.

The app keeps crashing after the signature page. I have tried 12 times and I have uninstalled and redownloaded twice.
