Proof of Everything
I love the fact that I can just send a proof of myself without handing my ID over to companies that always get hacked. This is the future especially with agents acting on behalf of me. Proof of everything must happen!
Best app
Fast and reliable
just crash
crash when scan
Additionnal document
Waiting for driving licence support
Aave and Velodrome Boosted Rewards
Using Self I am getting double the awards on Aave and Velodrome. Proving I am who I say is an incredibly powerful feature that more devs should be using.
My Experience
The Self (zk) app provides a secure and private way to verify identity using zero-knowledge proofs.
The recent updates improve user experience with better document scanning and proof history.
It’s easy to use and keeps personal data safe.
Adding support for more document types would be great.
Overall, a reliable app for privacy-focused identity verification.

super cool application!!!
Scans sensitive information, fails to verify
Yet another over-engineered app with minimal UI that overpromises and underdelivers. Self allegedly lets iOS devices scan machine-readable passport data (if you're very patient, when it finally works) and then talks to the RFID chip in e-Passports to confirm your data, but my result is just a silent red X before you're immediately kicked back to the start of the process with no message about what even failed nor why. There is zero support despite the problem being on their end. My USA passport is valid and works everywhere else I've used it, and I've never used Self before. I received the same result no matter how many times I went through the entire verification flow.
3/24/2025: Self is somehow even worse now, and deleting and reinstalling it doesn't help. No matter how well lit and/or glare-free the image is, Self no longer even recognizes a passport when scanning the MRZ (Machine Readable Zone, the two lines at the bottom of the photo page) no matter how stabilized and well aligned the camera is. I'm using an iPhone 15 Pro Max with an undamaged, clean camera that I've never had any issue with before.

Scans sensitive information, fails to verify
Yet another over-engineered app that doesn't do what it claims. The app lets your iOS device scan machine-readable passport data (if you're very patient, when it finally works) and then talks to the RFID chip in e-Passports as a second verification, but the result is just a silent red X before you're immediately kicked back to the start of the process with no message about what even failed nor why. There is zero support despite the problem being on their end. My passport was valid and works everywhere else I've used it, and I had never used this app before. I tried again, and got the same result.

Clean, intuitive and exciting
App was super easy to set up. Scanned my passport and got my identity pass in a few seconds.
Gorgeous app, does what it says it does
Solid app, it does what it says it does
Learned about Sybil resistance
I can prove I’m a real person. Good for airdrops and giveaways.
