Digital ID creation for Danish citizen living abroad

Not sure why the reviews claim that registration process does not work. I have a newer passport that meets the requirements and was able to create my ID in a few minutes.

Creating a username error

No matter how you do it, an error comes up everytime when attempting to create your mitID which makes you have to restart and do the scanning and photo all over and over and over and over again with the same error comes up, and you can’t even take a screenshot to show you the unnamed error. Tried multiple different usernames as per the instructions but nothing works.

App Refuses to Work

I’ve tried over ten times to get set up. App refuses to read my passport’s chip, then sends me through the same exact process that I’ve already done again, just to end up denying the whole thing. Claiming my face doesn’t match the picture on my Passport. Sure, whatever. Went to the website to look for FAQ, no help there. Horrible app.

Absolutely horrendous for EU passports

Each time I’ve tried to use the app to log in, at the exact point of scanning eu passport it crashes not once not twice but several times. This needs fixing asap if you want to this to be a universal tool for all citizens in Denmark
