App Does not work

Please be informed that the app has not been working for a long time now. It doesn’t even let you sign in with the error of ‘connection timeout try again later’. Please how is this supposed to serve its purpose if there’s no one to manage its effectiveness. Kindly look into this. The website is another problem on its own. Please assist.

Nonsense

Very unserious people managing this app. For about 2 months now, this App hasn’t been working at all. Anything that makes you log out, you can never log in again.
ID App my foot.
ID App that one can’t use.
Something that’s meant to be a means for a country’s identity, but same country seems to have abandoned it for months.

Quite sad that in 2025 Nigeria cannot still get this app to work. Just an app?? This is appalling. You should remove it from the App Store as it doesn’t work.
