### 5/5 — Cannot sign in any more

*2025-07-28, version 25.2.0*

I used to be as able to sign in. 2FA was not an issue. But now I am forced to use a Singapore mobile phone number for 2FA. Since I am overseas on a long term basis, I do not have a Singapore mobile number. I can’t use the app anymore.

2FA is very common. Face ID, and fingerprint as the second factor authentication works fine on other apps. Why can’t the Singpass app work with biometric auth?

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-06-21*

Good

### 5/5 — Very Accessible

*2025-03-28, version 25.0.1*

Amazing app. Hassle free for everyone. Gives us an easy life

### 2/5 — Unable to proceed

*2025-01-03, version 24.1.0*

I’m living overseas with no singapore mobile number. I cannot change my address to overseas because it requires a pin. That pin is sent only to sg address. There is no fingerprint or face recognition on mobile.
It just loops and there is no way of getting things done.

Extremely frustrating for locals living overseas

### 4/5 — Log in difficulty after Apps update

*2024-12-14, version 24.1.0*

Last time easily log in using pass pass, i cant figure out how to log in now

### 5/5 — app still crushing

*2024-08-06*

still crushing after version update

**Developer response:** Hi 过得好就好多好多好, thanks for sharing your feedback. We have just released an app update, version 24.0.1 that should resolve this issue. If the issue persists, please reach out to go.gov.sg/singpass-feedback-issue. Thank you for your continued support!

### 5/5 — Ez to use

*2024-07-30*

great

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work for overseas

*2024-05-17, version 22.0.0*

Downloaded the app. I work overseas and when I try logging in, it ask for my +65 mobile which I no longer possess.  The app should have other authenticator options since SMS is prone to social engineering risk.  Facial verification and or finger print should be the only MFA option.  please phase out SMS OTP and keep up with cybersecurity trend.

Service so good

### 1/5 — 拉完了

*2026-06-02*

死活注册不了

### 1/5 — Not trying to setup a new device

*2025-11-18, version 25.4.1*

Stuck in an infinite loop. Can’t exit new “use Bluetooth to  transfer function” and can only log out. Useless!

### 1/5 — Unable to access

*2025-07-08, version 25.2.0*

Cannot login. Requires mobile
Number and no way to provide mobile number. Would like to access but mobile requirement seems unfair.

### 1/5 — Card details could not be loaded

*2025-05-19, version 25.1.0*

Dear developer, kindly assist to fix the card details could not be loaded issue. Thank you.

### 1/5 — Major difficulties from overseas

*2025-04-25, version 25.0.1*

The updates has created issue with Singaporean , at for me, living overseas.  
Been showing technical difficulties (98-UP021)

Please allow for overseas telephone number. I do not have Singapore telephone number.  When I use it on a laptop, it allows me to enter my overseas email but keep asking for Singapore number.  And one cannot proceed with updated.  

And this is silly I can go to HDB site with ability to log in Singpass. And Singpass Will not allow me in via this apps .   It is a silly silly train of thought.

### 1/5 — Technical difficulty error prompt

*2025-04-23, version 25.0.1*

This App does not seem to work for Singaporeans living overseas without a local mobile number. Without this level of verification it impacts user logins to local banks for transactional history.

### 1/5 — What are you doing？

*2025-04-14*

I tried for 3 days why is it always a technical error???If you can't do it well, don't do it

**Developer response:** We are sorry to hear this. Can you share the error message that you face? Kindly reach us at https://go.gov.sg/singpass-feedback-issue

### 1/5 — Stupid Design

*2025-02-21, version 25.0.0*

They force you to do face verification, Im trying to reset my singpass password for my grandma who is in another country. They also keep making you reset your password. This is not balancing security over convenience, it’s just plain stupidity from the management team.

### 1/5 — The app keeps logging me out and it's so annoying

*2024-09-23, version 24.0.3*

The app just logged me out automatically if it hasn't been used for sometime. And when your password expired, they force you to retrieve a new PIN via post! which will take days even within such a small country, This is 2024 already.

### 5/5 — Dr Polly North

*2026-08-22, version 26.2.0*

Singpass has made so many aspects of settling into our new home straight forward and pain free. It is an excellent tool, well built and widely implemented.

### 5/5 — 非常感谢

### 5/5 — 登陆

*2026-06-22*

非常容易，特别方便

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2026-05-19, version 26.0.4*

It’s easy for some who has a hard time just have to let them know about using the overseas number. I had to iodate with ICA and CPF before I left Singapore and they will guide you. The best for some that can’t log on I suggest to call them directly. I did even if I had to  pay international call. Use a cheapest call.

### 5/5 — G

*2026-05-18*

I’m in the U.S. currently. I can’t update the app while I’m here!

### 5/5 — Convenient

*2026-03-13, version 26.0.1*

Very useful and accessible for daily digital transactions requiring the app for verification

It's recent integration with TraceTogether is truly the convenience I was looking forward to

### 5/5 — Such an excellent application

*2026-02-26, version 26.0.1*

This is a government app that works better than many fully commercial apps. It’s incredibly functional, smooth, easy to use and overall useful.

### 5/5 — Working

*2026-02-14*

Great for holding government documents
