If only all digital bureaucratic processes could be this good.
★★★★★ L Wang · Jul 19, 2026

★★★★☆ John Kaye · Jul 7, 2026
Not sure the flashing lights are necessary but otherwise seems to work fine.
★★★★★ Rebecca Piesse · Jun 25, 2026
Instructions clear and easy to follow but go slowly and patiently!
★☆☆☆☆ Danny Poole · Jun 29, 2026
Why do I have to scan my face to confirm my identity now - this is ridiculous and intrusive. There are two options on the government website but conveniently when I choose the other one it glitches, leaving me with no choice but to download this vulturous app
★★☆☆☆ Phillips Steven · Jun 24, 2026
Needed to identify myself on the hmrc government gateway for a tax refund. The use of the qr code to link the app to the gateway was simple, but all the challenges came after that. The scan of the passport photo page was very sensitive and It's challenging to get it just right, so it scans, the read of the passport chip is easy once you remember to move the phone up and down to read chip, the selfie again a little sensitive before it scans. The app does work but it takes time.
