Difficult to work

Did this while I was waiting in line to get my boarding pass scanned. Took about 20 minutes to get the passport scanned, chip read which required research and lastly picture taken. By the time I got it working, I was at the front of the line. Maybe useful for next time

잘만되는데

50번 시도하면서 안될때까지 이것만 붙잡고 있느라 비행기 놓친 사람은 본인 지능을 의심해야할 듯
안되면 그냥 일반 출국게이트로 가야지 뭐하냐? ㅋㅋㅋ 어이가 없어서 리뷰남김

星1もつけたくありません。

登録しようとアプリインストールしましたが、どのボタンタップしてもグルグルグルグル読み込みが終わらない。読み込みに時間かかりすぎ。
せっかく登録してスムーズに出国できると思ったら、1個ボタン押す事に読み込みが長すぎて登録に時間かかるとかふざけてますよね。
アンインストールします。もう使いません。
こんなゴミアプリなら 登録する手間<並ぶ となるので並んだ方がいいです。

Garbage

Cannot read my EU passport …. Useless app , shameful for Korea who a leader in technology… an African 10 years old can make a working app, but you not capable…

Smart Pass (Korea) – My Experience & Tips for Scanning a U.S. Passport

I had a good experience using the Smart Pass app. Overall, I didn’t have any major issues with it. The only part that took me a few tries was scanning the NFC chip in my U.S. passport with my iPhone. Once I figured out the correct position, everything worked perfectly.

Here are a few tips that may save you some time.

iPhone Users

Hold your passport in your left hand with the inside back cover open.

With your right hand, hold your iPhone horizontally and press the top of the phone firmly against the back of the passport.

The NFC antenna on iPhones is located near the top of the device.

Don’t move the phone. Hold it steady and wait for the check mark to appear. Once you see the check mark, continue with the remaining steps and you’re done.

Android Users

The process is very similar.

Open the passport to the inside back cover and place the back of your Android phone against the back of the passport.

The NFC antenna is usually located on the back of most Android phones (though the exact location may vary by model).

Again, don’t move the phone. Hold it steady until the check mark appears, then continue with the rest of the setup.

One Recommendation

For both iPhone and Android users, I highly recommend removing your phone case before scanning. It may help the NFC connection, especially if you have a thicker case.

One Small Thing I Noticed

During the initial setup, the app asks which language you’d like to use. I selected English and continued through the setup.

However, when the main screen loaded, the app was still in Korean.

It wasn’t a big deal. I simply went into Settings, selected English again, saved it, and the entire app switched to English.

Overall

Once I got past the passport scan, the rest of the process was quick, straightforward, and easy to follow. As soon as I completed the setup, my boarding information appeared automatically without any problems.

I hope these tips help someone else avoid the trial and error I went through.

Good luck, and safe travels! 😊

Terrible app

This app is useless.
Does not work, does not scan us passport and does not work on IOS
Don’t bother with it not needed.

Terrible and Slow

Nothing ever loads

Complete waste of time

this app sucks so much

Never works

This app never works and need to be seriously from ground up. It baffles me that they are not iterating on this given dismal reviews and terrible user experience

Terrible app

Doesn’t scan the chip via NFC

App crashed after NFC scan

Bad experience, bad app!!!

App will fight you every step of the way

This is not a convenient app to use. The load times take forever, the phone tells you to move around your iPhone when scanning the passport and then tells you it couldn’t scan your passport because you moved your phone. QR code scan for registering your boarding pass is janky and hasn’t worked for me either. Would rather just have to show my passport and boarding pass at the airport at this point

登録は出来たけど

一昨年くらいに韓国行った時にスムーズそうなのを見て登録した。
読み込まないというのを見ていたから案外スッと読み込めて拍子抜けしたが次からは楽だな〜なんて思い、今年。
韓国行くし使用前に確認しておこうと思ったら、顔認証で入れたものの永遠に白画面にくるくる…使えなくなっていた。

これだけ低評価になってるのに直さないんだな…。

Does not work for EU passport

Really bad app unfortunately. Does not work for EU passport

So bad

Made with stupid, never go through the scan passport part

Most painful app ever used

It is almost unusable. I do not know why it is put out for others to use. I cannot get the chip scanned, very frustrated. It is the opposite of “smart”.

Absolutely trash app

Extremely difficult to scan and read passport. Waste of time. Lag and reload issues.

Положительный отзыв

Зарегестрировал российский паспорт моментально. Во время сканирования NFC на паспорте не шевелите телефоном, просто положите телефон на метку и не трогайте пока не появится галочка.

Doesn’t Work Well

After registering and scanning my passport, I couldn’t get past the boarding pass registration. Even with a clear QR code it didn’t work. Useless app!

Not helpful

I am trying to set this up and although I pressed English the app is in Korean and I can’t understand what I’m doing!!
