Terrible

Customer service is absolutely nonexistent.

No longer working

DO NOT UPDATE UNTIL FIXED!!! Since I did the update last night I have not been able to approve any of my controlled medications from my EMR as this app stopped working. Wish they would leave things alone. They try to improve things that work only to make them inefficient. I can no longer send any of my medications which is frustrating.

Horrible app

This has got to be the most user unfriendly app I have ever used. How I’m supposed to open this to pay Medicare bill is beyond me.
The push authenticator does not work. What secret code am I to put in? What QR code am I to use?
How does someone supposed to get to their SS? Do better

No help available

I have an ID.me account that I have no trouble accessing using a desktop computer. However, many sites are pushing the use of mobile browsers. So I downloaded this app and can’t even get to step one which presumably would be for it to know who I am. Deleted.

My account?!

I have an account and have had one for years. Why does this STUPID app make me create an account? What happened to my existing account that’s been in this app for years? JUNK!!
