As a member of the Police; this app is very helpful. It confirms if the ID number is in use, the age of the person and if they are deceased or not. What would be helpful if they could add barcode scanning to confirm if the actual document in my hand is valid, and a photo of the lawful owner, with full names, to prevent ID theft.
Doesn't seem to be working for me, whenever I tap the tick on my phone it doesn't respond. Maybe add in a built in button into the app that will ensure its processing?
It's a good app though still om amateur stage. I believe the developers can do better than this hence I'm rating 2 stars. You should be able to see more than the basic knowledge of ID state. Tel me if is active, blocked or something coz i might feed you the number which is not mine and you won't even see the name.
App isn't working there are ad popups which make it difficult to use it without downloading the apps.
The app is useful but it should show the name and surname deceased or alive if you can add that it will be 100% useful. Thank you
Data is expensive these days don't waste your time and money on this. DONT!!!! ITS A TRAP
Mother passed away 13years ago,it states the id is valid,doesn't state if she is deceased or not,father passed away 2years ago,his id is also valid,and doesn't state deceased or not,so what exactly is this app useful for🤦♀️
Great, been waiting for this my whole south african la life, I wish this app can be used everywhere, during a purchase in all shops so that we know that we're not buying from foreigners 👌
Stupid app and a waste. All it gives is birth day, age and citizenship. Just with the ID itself you have all that info. What's the purpose of this app? At least it could give address and contact details.
I've rated 3 stars, because at least if we had also where it displayed the names and surname of the individual would be wonderful
Can you improve the App so that it shows a person older than 100 actual age and not 100 years less?
Does exactly what it's supposed.. Fast, accurate and very helpful..... Shot
It gives the gender and birthday, but NOT the name. This app is only half useful.
Great help but would be better if it mentioned the race as well
Works good but the only thing its not show the name and surname
It isn't happen to me seem like not valid number stupidity app
Would be better if it showed full names. Its useless
Good app butbit doesnt show all the details..eg ,i checked my late sister's id number and said its valid.. how can my sister's id number still says its valid when he died in 2018...
Great and easy to use
Needs more work, does very little in assuring duplication and fraud
So impressed I thought it just prank but helpful now I can determine that my status is good thanks
I love it, it just doesn't work for the 2K Gen.
I want to ask. Pls help. Am a mother of a girl so i want to change her surname for her father and call my surname. What must i suppose to do. What the requirement they want. The reason i want to change. Hes not taking care and am tired of following him. And its stress me everyday when i look at my girl birth certificate. Please help me.
They give fully information
I'm just asking myself as to what the purpose of this app is as it is quite useless. Please work on your App.
I love the app is great
I'm quite disappointed😔 with the app... I feel like it is redundant... I tried to enter my ID number but nothing happens. There's no button to proceed to see the output. I have tried to restart the app so that I can enter my ID number again but it still doesn't budge... And after seeing other reviews, this app requires some more work...
