### 1/5 — O porcarie de aplicatie.

*2026-07-17*

Ne functionalã, tipic românesc.😩

### 1/5 — Nu merge

*2026-07-12*

Tipic romanesc de la stat, nu citeste si da eroare de fiecare data.

### 1/5 — Nu s-a putut stabili conexiunea cu cartea de identitate.

*2026-04-01*

Titlul spune tot!

### 1/5 — O prostie de aplicație!

*2026-03-23*

O tâmpenie. Nu merge. Tipic pentru autoritățile române.

### 1/5 — Nu funcționează

*2026-03-03*

Cea mai faină idee pusă în practică în cel prost mod. Nu citește absolut nimic, nu se conectează la nici un CEI. Momentan e degeaba

### 5/5 — Foarte OK

*2026-03-02*

Merge perfect

### 4/5 — Decenta

*2026-02-23*

Functioneaza, dar citirea este cam lenta. 

Exista loc de imbunatatire.

De asemenea, ar fi bine ca exemplarul PDF generat din aplicatie sa includa si o semnatura electronica, sa para autentic, nu facuta in Word + Print -> PDF .

Mult succes in continuare!

### 4/5 — D

Țineți lipit în partea de sus a ecranului, 1cm chiar trece peste telefon

### 1/5 — Error

*2026-01-26*

### 1/5 — Bataie de joc

*2026-01-21*

Bataie de joc, nu merge deloc ! Cati bani s or fi luat din asta?!…
