It has such good potential to replace physical wallet in the future if the app will be done right. The first thing that should be changed is to start using NFC HCE on all elements. The current mixture of QR-codes, NFC HCE and NFC SIM (which is outdated and doesn't work on all devices) is just messy and non-intuitive.
When you will plan to utilize NFC chip built in to the phone? The NFC sim cards are still very rare, but most phones nowadays have NFC feature. This is a modern standard. The question was not only about a Ühiskaart, but also why not to use NFC in parallel with QR codes? Works well with Partner and Alexela cards.
EDIT: The app just pushed me a notification ad in Russian(???) Ühiskaart is relatively very expensive; why do I need to pay again every 2 years? A physical card has no expiry. I also do not understand the need for an NFC SIM: its never explained why its nessecary. The phone's NFC is secure enough for payments but not a transport card? Speaking of tap-to-pay, it hasn't worked for me at all, anywhere, while Swedbank's app does. The terminals just give an error that the "card is unrecognized".
Seems not possible to add bank cards when roaming. I have added cards previously but now in Spain it is saying "Mobiilandmeside peab olema lubatud teenuse lisamise ajaks". Even though my mobile data is enabled and roaming is enabled. App permissions to use network is allowed. The app is saying me to confirm my number and then it tries calling 70100982 without any country code and there is an error "this number is not in use". There should be a country code in front of this number to work.
Bought the NFC SIM card and added Ühiskaart to the app. Afterwards contactless payments didn't work anymore with Google Pay or Swedbank. Maybe the NFC SIM has problems on Huawei as well. Also wrote to the mTasku email many weeks ago, but they don't respond. Anyway spent some money and time trying to get it to work, but Ühiskaart with the NFC SIM doesn't work properly on my Huawei phone. They should make Ühiskaart work on more phones like the other cards do.
If you plan to use it for Ühiskaart, just don't bother. Tried adding Ühiskaart, just does not work although I've got everything it needs. Googled a bit: seems a lot of people have the same issue.
The app is good for a Partnerkaart, but recently Ühiskaart is added to the App and it's too complicated to use (NFC Phone + Telia contract + NFC SIM + 2€ for adding) Why you used an old NFC SIM technology instead of NFC HCE? It's does not make any sense to use it.
I also use Revolut bank, and I added this card to the app, but it doesn't show the bank name, instead "null".
Got problems with all kinds of NFC payments like Swedbank and Google pay right after getting the NFC SIM card to use with my Ühiskaart.... So many regrets. No longer able to use my phone's NFC properly. By that I mean my main use for it: payments. Really saddened. :C
Really convenient. Once a payment method and kaubamaja partner card are added to mTasku, grocery shopping can be done with phone only (can leave wallet at home). Now some bills can be also paid with mTasku (like Telia), much more convenient than the 3 Auth steps for paying through internet banking.
It could be a useful app, but it requires an outdated NFC SIM (which is sold by only Telia) for some features.
Inane and anticompetitive requirement of NFC-SIM to use any of this app's useful features. Phones have NFC and secure enclaves, you can use those. Boo, Telia.
Works like a charm - payments, Ühiskaart on NFC, loyalty cards. Just wish there were more - ELMO charging, door chips, gift cards etc. And wish it worked in smart watches, too.
Can't use, as the only way provided by app for email address verification is to allow access to phones google or facebook account, what is security nuisanse.
Card for public transport doesn't work for phones with NFC only for phones without NFC and need special sim card, so will wait for app which will support build in NFC.
Idea is excellent, but not enough in practice... Too few frequent customer cards can be added.
Changed SIM to NFC, NFC activated. But adding ühiskaart I get the error "You phone shoud have NFC SIM and NFC enabled". Xiaomi Mi9T Pro.
Can't get my phone number verified. Does this work with only Telia phone number? Can't you just use a SMS verification? And the partner choices are really limited too. (one positif thing, at least you are trying mobile payment solutions)
Unique solution to keep your client cards in one virtual wallet. Supports nfc so don't need to swipe anything.
Phones have NFC, why can't the app use that? why do I have to buy an NFC SIM?
Why not support OnePlus devices? And why the need for special NFC SIM?
Can't do anything, because app says 'mobile data should be enabled'
Can't register or sign in. Says "error upon entry"
Why 1 out of 5? Everything is great, except for Ühiskaart ( Why can't u just add and use it like Partner card?
Doesn't work with luminor authentication!
After several updates NFC yhis card worked with swedbank app installed, atleast on Pixel 5
i cant use nfc for some reason i have a samsung galaxy s9
would love to see ühiskaart support
NFC SIM for a transport card? What?
Cannot use the app. Half the instructions are in Estonian even when English is selected. If you offer a language make sure you support it properly. Usually I'd copy paste into translator, but the text is not selectable! On top of that, font size does not respect device accessibility settings, which is unforgivable in 2020.
