Not everyone has a telephone with an NFC reader. With the CheckID app from DigiD you can help someone add the ID check to his or her DigiD app. The app on your phone only performs the one-time check of the ID. Your own DigiD login details are not required for this. No data is stored on your phone. More information at: https://www.digid.nl/inlogmethods/id-check DATA PROCESSING & PRIVACY With DigiD's CheckID app you can perform a one-off check of an identity document for someone else. The check is carried out by reading the chip on the Dutch driver's license or identity document using the NFC reader on your device. The CheckID app reads the document number, validity and date of birth of an identity card, or the driving license number of a driving license. This data is sent via a secure connection to the DigiD app for which the ID check is carried out. The CheckID app does not process any data from the device on which it is installed for this check. Additional terms: • The user is solely responsible for the security of his mobile device. • Updates for the CheckID app can be downloaded and installed automatically via the app store. These updates are intended to improve, expand or further develop the app and may include fixes for program errors, advanced features, new software modules or completely new versions. Without these updates, the app may not function or not function properly. • Logius reserves the right to (temporarily) stop offering the CheckID app in the app store or (temporarily) stop the operation of the app without giving reasons.
Modotti

Modotti brings your notes, your tasks and your AI assistant together in one place, on Mac and iPhone. Everything you write, save and plan lives in ordinary Markdown files, in a folder you choose. No account, no Modotti server, no lock-in. YOUR ASSISTANT PICKS UP WHERE YOU LEFT OFF Every chat that starts from zero costs you the context you already had. In Modotti, that context lives in a folder. Connect Claude or ChatGPT on your Mac and your assistant reads the notes you read, adds tasks to the lists you use and writes new notes where they belong. Next time, it carries on from where it stopped. How far that goes is up to you. Reading and writing are separate permissions, per assistant. One project or all of them. Every action shows up in a local log, and access ends the moment you say so. Modotti runs no AI and sells no AI; the connector uses the assistant account you already have. NOTES AND TASKS, ONE CLICK APART Write a note on your Mac. Add a task to your project. Tick it off on your phone. Notes and tasks live in the same app and the same folder: one click and you're in your task list, one click and you're back in your note. No second app, no second system to keep up with. EVERYTHING YOU NEED, IN ONE PLACE The article you want to read tonight. The PDF of the contract, the recording of the interview, the video you want to watch back. Save a page from Safari with the Modotti Web Clipper on Mac, or share it to Modotti from your iPhone, and read it later. Share a note as text, or save it as a PDF in Modotti's own layout. YOUR FILES STAY YOURS Modotti writes ordinary Markdown files to a folder you choose. Open them in any text editor or Markdown app, with or without Modotti. Already have a second brain in another Markdown app? Modotti reads those same files. ON YOUR MAC AND ON YOUR PHONE Keep the folder on one device, or put it in iCloud under your own Apple Account. Apple handles the sync. Modotti has no sync server and never gets a copy. PAY ONCE OR SUBSCRIBE Monthly and yearly plans start with seven days free for eligible App Store accounts. Or buy Modotti once, with no recurring fee. Every option covers Mac and iPhone; the App Store shows the price for your country. Paying keeps the app improving and up to date. You don't pay for access to your own files. Stop paying, and they stay yours, in the folder you chose. Terms of Use (Standard EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Modotti is made by Marcel van der Steen, a Dutch journalist, photographer and documentary maker. After sixteen years of working mostly in the Balkans and the Arab world, he built the app he could never find: one place for all his notes and tasks, in files that stay his. Built for journalists, photographers, filmmakers and other makers whose work moves between research, notes, deadlines and tasks.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: CheckID voor DigiD at none against Modotti's 3. Modotti's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 months). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
