Complains about white background

Complains about white background even with ID placed on black sheet. Sometimes says move to avoid reflection. Not even once it captured my id details.

FAQ

What does the ReadID Me app do?

The app reads the NFC chip embedded in identity documents like passports and ID cards using your iPhone's NFC functionality. It can also verify the authenticity of these documents.

How does the app verify identity documents?

It first scans the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) of the document to obtain the password required to access the NFC chip. It then reads and verifies the chip's data.

Is my personal data safe when using this app?

Yes, the app operates client-only, meaning all personal data read from your identity document remains on your phone and does not leave the device.

What devices are compatible with ReadID Me?

The app requires an iPhone 7 or later model, as these devices are equipped with the necessary NFC capabilities to read the identity document chips.

What types of documents can this app read?

The app can read identity documents that contain an NFC chip, which includes most modern passports and many national identity cards.
