Poor or no available customer support or help options within the app or website.

Recent reviews

App is probably working as intended, but the system is so stupidly complicated and there are no clear instructions on anything.

Cr*****, 2024-11-22

When trying to take a passport photo, the screen goes black for 1 second, then says the photo couldn't be taken. Camera permissions are on. Trying to fix it by contacting support team is asking to make a selfie as one of steps. And again, when trying to take a selfie for support, the app crashes. It is sad there is no 0 star option on Google Play
