User Reviews

The reviews show persistent reliability and usability problems. Identity verification fails across multiple documents, locking users out. Many report needing to uninstall/reinstall to regain access, and update prompts that dont resolve. Overseas Australians face additional barriers. The app also suffers from frequent errors, crashes, and long waits for support, including 24-hour lockouts. While the app aims to enable government access and verification codes, these issues undermine its core purpose.

Pros

Mandatory for accessing some government services.
Intended to deliver verification codes for sign-in.
Supports in-app identity verification by scanning documents (passport, drivers license, Medicare, visa).
Aims to centralize access to government services through one app.

Cons

Identity verification frequently fails across passports, licenses, and other documents.
Users often must uninstall and reinstall the app to proceed or fix issues.
Update prompts appear or the app is reported as not up-to-date despite having the latest version.
Overseas Australians face significant barriers to access and use of the app.
Frequent errors, crashes, freezing, account lockouts (including 24-hour lockouts) and limited customer support.

Trying to verify passport while overseas. Info entered several times. Seems to be an issue with given/middle names not being accepted. Account shows only first name even though I signed up with both First and Middle names.
