✓ Dr Richard Jones-ParryImpressive use of technology..Version: 1.27.0

✓ Worked!I’ve tried to access the gov gateway a few times over the years but never managed - it wanted weird and wonderful information that I never seemed to have correct. Today, for the first time, it was smooth and easy! Accessed using Irish passport scan and chip reader, face scan and match with my uk drivers license,simple. Good and well explained process..Version: 1.9.0
✓ ImpressedExcellent and clear process for confirming identity. Very impressive!.Version: 1.13.0
✓ Slightly confusedFor an elderly person who is not computer literate the whole procedure is a little confusing ie. Phone, type, iPad, computer, scan app. Took a little time to organise everything! Otherwise not a bad experience..Version: 1.25.0

✓ It worked in the endWas incredibly sci-fi. They should flash up an image to show which part of the passport it needs to scan for photo part as that was hard..Version: 1.27.0
✓ Chip location a problemFinding the location of the embedded chip was a challenge. Also as my iPhone camera lenses are proud of the rear of the phone I found I need to press the passport tightly to the back of the phone to get the chip communicating with the phone..Version: 1.27.0
✓ Incredible technology!Bravo!.Version: 1.20.1
✓ Very cool!Well done gov.uk.Version: 1.8.0

✓ The app has improved significantlyThe app has improved significantly since last time. One month ago, I was trying to log in, into my account but the app did not work at all!

✓ Online biometrics identification confirmationAbsolutely brilliant and easy to follow the instructions for scanning your passport and using the app etc. Artificial Intelligence at its best and no having to deal with a human on the other end of a phone after waiting for over an hour … all of these people will soon be replaced by A.I. anyway and will become available to pick the country’s fruit & vegetables … so a win win situation for everyone!.Version: 1.17.0
✓ Hugo wooldridgeFor months I have tried to get my insurance number but all attention ya have thus far failed I thought I’d have to go through a long and tedious process after losing it only to have to spend less than 10 minutes to get it.Version: 1.6.0

✓ 5 starEasy and safe.Version: 1.31.0
✓ Face match appThe steps were easy to follow EXCEPT when face match app is mentioned, directions need to state press ‘continue’ to start the process or start the app. I spent ages trying to find an app on my phone until I decided to press ‘continue’ and see what was next!.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Government ID appMy only problem was the final step. Instruction was set phone on photo ID. I literally did that without success. Finally I set my phone on the front of the closed passport Roughly where the symbol is located. Success!.Version: 1.14.0
✓ Proud of the digital age.The way it was done. I was always wondering why governments aren’t taking the full advantages of tech. This app does just that. Very very proud to have studies computer science and to see how to makes life easy..Version: 1.14.0
✓ Worked perfectly for meThe only slight issue I had was finding the location of the chip in my passport. It wasn’t on the front near the chip icon, it was on the back. Once I’d located the chip, the phone read it in seconds and with a face scan my identity was verified in a couple of minutes total. Very impressive..Version: 1.4.0
✓ Government appThis app works great. So easy to use and very convenient.Version: 1.31.0
✓ Total sh tDoesn’t work.Version: 1.4.0
✓ Using the government website and appVery user friendly, efficient in every possible way you can think of in terms of service as well..Version: 1.31.0
✓ So easy to useBordering on the miraculous. The app takes control of the phone and clearly tells you how to hold the phone, find chips, scan your face. Impressive act of combining technology and explanation..Version: 1.31.0
✓ Do not workI'm trying to validate my identity. When I use the app, it sends me back to the site gov. to download the app again and reopen it to validate my identity. I never reach the page where I've to scan my face or passport..Version: 1.4.0
✓ Tax estimate owedI found logging into the site easy which makes a nice change. It guided me through the options and I actually managed to get the answers I needed and make the changes. Well done for have a website that is user friendly!.Version: 1.25.0
✓ Gov ID checkVery easy to use with clear instructions.Version: 1.14.0
✓ ExcellentWell thought out app , clear instructions and worked flawlessly.Version: 1.31.0
✓ Actually worksI’ve come to expect a level of incompetence when it comes to the UK govt and tech, and today I have been truly humbled..Version: 1.27.0
✓ Very Easy Instructions to FollowI was sceptical- very easy to complete!!.Version: 1.24.0
✓ UK digital services FTWThis app is great. UK digital services are actually making a decent effort in improving the digital footprint of the UK government. Loved being able to ID myself using a smartphone rather than some paper based or phone process. Quick and simple, scan worked well and the ID photo screen was awesome. I didn’t even have to line things up properly.Version: 1.3.0
✓ YouTubeIncorrect information on how to scan, YouTube wins.Version: 1.25.0
✓ Passport chip scan was only hard partThe scan of the passport bio chip only worked after taking the phone out of its case. Don’t have to do that for contactless payments or wireless charging. Assume the passport chip is more shielded..Version: 1.29.0
✓ ID CheckExcellent app. Simple and fast to use. Thank you.Version: 1.18.0
✓ They may now have cracked this!Just used this app to verify my ID when changing address with HMRC. I thought it was really good and worked like a dream for me. It uses the phone to read the photo from the chip on your passport then uses facial recognition to check it is really you. It seems like overkill for an HMRC address change. It is likely to lead to info not being up to date because it makes it harder. However, it feels like a really useful app for remote ID verification. I hope that they will licence it beyond government applications. It gets really bad reviews here so clearly not everyone has such a positive experience as me. However, if my experience is not unique, it seems they may have cracked it!.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Every government website should be as good!I dealt with French and Australian government website and this is by far the best! Everything goes smoothly, from logging in, checking ID and applying for various services. Very impressed.Version: 1.30.0
✓ Great app and some tipsWhen I verified my passport, it doesn’t work. But when I took off my phone case and passport cover, it worked straight away. Great app! Please try to check if you take off the phone case or not.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Easy to followWorked very well, I am happy it is so secure.Version: 1.9.0
✓ Armed Forces Veterans CardAn interesting experience for a valuable item that has been long overdue. It will be interesting to see what this card will do for us veterans with regard to gaining access to Reunions in military facilities alongside any another benefits..Version: 1.25.0
✓ Taking a pic of DLTaking a pic of my drivers license only seemed to work once I put the phone torch on despite it being very light and perfectly legible without. The torch being on only seemed to add the glare it persistently told me it was receiving without it. So if you can not get the app to take the photo. Turn the torch on!.Version: 1.28.0
