1. I wish they allowed applicants to continue using the normal applicaiton via the website, at leat we could scan and upload the necessary documents without going through the hustle of taking images.Does not scan anything, done it multiple times, still unsuccessfulAbsolutely terrible when it come for taking the photo.
2. I tried both my andoid phone and my wife's Iphone nothing work.The app kicks me out after scanning my passport chip, each new attempt requiring a multistep login process to access the online application, then the app, and then to connect the two.
3. Because the app gets the data from a server, when you are doing the NFC Chip verification step, make sure that you have a very good internet connection and good upload speed.
4. No photo seems to pass, even when meeting the guidelines, and then it just kicks you out of the app, forcing a complete restart of the whole process until you run out of attempts for the day.
5. Finally made it through to taking pictures after half an hour of aimlessly trying to scan for the chip.
6. If your home connection is not good, then try to complete the NFC Chip verification step somewhere with a very fast internet connection.
7. Top tip when taking pictures ensure you wear dark shirt or top.The NFC feature doesn't work on my phone.
8. On repeated attempts the app says that I have used the app before but have not completed the process - but each time it requires me to start from scratch.
9. It then decides to revert back to step 1 of the verification process and now all my attempts are used up for 24 hours.
10. Keeps just taking my face instead of including shoulders and torsoJust started using it and it's an absolute nightmare.
11. The graphic says when you hear a beep, the scanning should begin but this doesn't happen no matter how many times I hear a beep.
