### 1/5 — Scan function

*2026-07-09*

This app is terrible doesn’t even scan document wasting my time. No contact numbers and I don’t know why all reviews are hidden from Apple. Not confident using this app

### 1/5 — 扫描不了

根本扫不上

### 1/5 — Worst app

*2025-10-15, version 4.119.0*

I scan my passport documents , exp date 2032 but it says that i document is old haha

### 5/5 — Zoveel sneller!

*2025-07-12, version 4.116.0*

Wat heerlijk dat we op deze makkelijke manier met ReadID een bewijs van in leven zijn kunnen insturen! En gratis op de koop toe ipv er een bedrag van $25 voor te moeten betalen! Fantastisch!

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas

*2025-05-15, version 4.114.0*

Impossible de scanner le recto de ma pièce d’identité cette application est inutile

### 1/5 — Nightmare

*2025-04-06*

It’s my passport but it won’t verify my face . I have gotten my passport 2 years ago no huge changes .

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback. Could you check if different lighting situation or removing your glasses (if you have any) might improve the face verification for you? ^GT

### 2/5 — Confusing

*2025-03-30, version 4.113.0*

The instructions for scanning your passport are very poor.

### 5/5 — QR Code

*2025-01-02*

Bonjour, la lecture de QR CODE utilise la mauvaise caméra sur mon iPhone 15 pro !!
Le QR CODE est impossible à lire. 
Est ce normal ?

### 3/5 — Simplify instruction

*2024-09-25*

Het was niet gemakkelijk om mijn “ bewijs van in leven zijn” zelf te digitaliseren. Maar dat de mogelijkheid er is ipv naar gemeentehuis te rijden( ver weg) en £10 te betalen, is dit een hele verademing!
Misschien iets duidelijker zijn , voor ons oudjes en de digibeet onder ons.
Met vriendelijke groet: caroline stam UK

### 5/5 — id Card scanned
