User reviews

Horrible app…

Cannot get past scanning or inputting my passport. Keep getting the error message “If your details are correct, the app won’t be able to find any registrations for you.”

It doesn’t allow you to move forward. Very confusing, very difficult to understand. Development needs to go back to re-design and relaunch! I would give it zero stars if I could.
