### 2/5 — Gets the job done but it’s not great

*2026-09-07, version 3.32.0*

I used the app to verify my identity. It was very annoying because the max limit on the document size is 5MB and my lease is like 16MB. It also couldn’t account for automatically filling out phone numbers using dashes or parenthesis which so when I submitted my application, it threw an error and I had to submit it again. I also don’t know why they don’t accept passport cards so I had to wait until I got home to provide a photo of my passport

### 2/5 — Review

*2026-09-02, version 3.31.0*

The picture capture is too sensitive.

*2026-08-25, version 3.31.0*

Very easy to use

### 4/5 — Too quick

*2026-08-03, version 3.30.2*

The camera doesn’t really give time to line up before it takes the shot so it’s more likely to be blurred or off centre.

### 4/5 — OK

*2026-07-08, version 3.30.2*

Forte bun

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2026-05-27, version 3.30.0*

Whilst this app seems a good idea it is very frustrating in successfully accepting my passport id and when you return saving information that has already been inputted. Also requiring the credit agreement number when in my  opinion it should have been known. Hope this helps.

### 1/5 — Flakey, buggy, annoying.

*2026-05-18, version 3.29.0*

The app isn’t fit for purpose. Lots of bugs. Lots of user issues. Doesn’t confirm what’s successfully uploaded and what isn’t. Photo capture is inconsistent and flakey. Needs to go back into BETA.

### 1/5 — Outrageous

*2026-07-29, version 3.30.2*

Time was a man was innocent until proved guilty of something, yet here I am spending hours of my life proving I am not a fraudster, money launderer, scammer or sanction-busting Russian Oligarch. And to cap it all, you then want a review telling you how the whole experience was life- enhancing? Well it wasn’t. 

It is in fact a gross invasion of my privacy and insults the integrity I have spent a lifetime building.
