User reviews
This is madness. It's as if a different person from each government departments designed a section of the app without discussing compatibility with the other departments. So when you go to link a service it says sorry your sign in method to my gov doesn't work for this department you need to create a different way of signing in. I've never come across anything more retarded in my life.
Unstable. Get an error " identity service is unavailable error... identity.gov.au is unavailable please try again later". The usability is terrible so when there is an error there is no way to easily report it. Instead you get reminded of the privacy obligations and a rant about how good the app is. Incorrect levels of authentication (you can't use biometrics across all apps for consistent user experience) between integrated apps means moving between apps once authtictaed it not easy.
The link to statutory declaration does not link to the form but to a digital id area. Having the form ready accessible would be very useful. Please fix it
