Zero unfortunately not possible. Not sending out the confirmation emails to set up account at them moment. Stopped at the first hurdle. Luckily, there is NO alternative method on web browser to register. The iPhone version is even worse - geoblocked to Australia accounts only; since Australia is the world and there are none of us living abroad. What a complete piece of "brought to you by your tax dollars" piece of work. (How does one recognize the government app? It is the one that does not work.)

If I could give this a big fat zero I would. After several attempts to create an account for my husband, which he requires, to access work information we are still going around in circles. it's been updated, uninstalled and reinstalled more times than I care to admit to and it just freezes, or gets stuck loading. We managed to get as far as entering drivers license information only to be told it was incorrect (which it wasn't) and couldn't be verified. Absolute garbage app, FIX IT!

Horrible. Used to work but now it doesn't. A few years ago I had no problem logging in and verifying my documents. But now that I'm trying to log in again after a while, I can't log in with the same email address. Everytime I keep saying I'm an existing user, it still insists on trying to make me create a new account. Now that I'm on hold with the mygovid service number, I have to wait 26 minutes. You're so incompetent and lazy to make an even slightly decent app, it's almost impressive.

If I could give a 0 I would. Worst App I have ever used, biggest time waster! Now the government wants everyone to have Director ID numbers and they mention fines if you don't get one, guess which nasty app you need to use to verify yourself?! Its been around 2 years now and its still just as hard to use as when it first came out....wish I was getting paid for my time! The helpline is even overwhelmed so no help there either.

Setting it up had a lot of issues, for example when trying to figure out if an ID number was a zero or a letter O it logged me out after less than a few mins so I had to restart everything. The types of ID verification allowed are really limited. You can only gain the strongest ID verification if you are an Aus citizen with an Aus passport so seems pretty discriminatory.
