### 1/5 — No obvious way to correct incorrect info

*2022-03-16*

I changed employers and since then, I am unable to view my vaccination certificates. I capture correct CPR number, correct Expiry number and correct Block number. But it keeps telling me that it does not match their records. None of the details above changed. Only help is to call a doctor?? Surely they should have an admin help

### 1/5 — Worst government app I have come across

*2021-08-08*

It keeps asking to register every 1-2 weeks and having to input all the details over and over again. An inconvenience when you have to show your shield at places and find out I can’t as it’s taken me once again to registration! I have to stand there and register before entering!
