Over complicated!
February 2, 2026

Worse sign on app I ever seen. This seemed to be the work of a computer security tech who thought he wrote a great program. There should have been a development team that included everyday people who are not computer techs. Appears to have been created by some egotistical bastard trying to impress his boss.

Worked fairly well, if you are a senior citizen and not good with Smartphones or computers you may want to have someone sitting next to you that can help

Great platform to use
February 2, 2026

Have used this to verify various governmental sites, works well and secures your information so others can't use your identity for their own purposes.

Obtaining "simple" information wasted a good deal of time. Setting up login with verification a real pain to accomplish. Website kept crashing and timing out.

Annoying process
February 1, 2026

The process to set up the account is somewhat annoying because there is too much redundency. Even with the account set up, I was not able to set up an account with social security as they could not verify the information received from Id.me

My experience with ID.me was both helpful and challenging. The platform is very secure and designed to protect personal identity, which I really appreciate. It connects easily with government services and other organizations, and it helps confirm who you are without needing to go in person.

Couldn't upload my Driver's License. Errors. Try again later—for MORE than a few days.
All sorts of instructions on WHAT to do, but NOWHERE / LINK on WHERE to do it.
I was persistent for over a week. Not many people will be.
I expect your whole ID.me program will fail because of this.

ID.me my experience
February 1, 2026

Terrible! It was the least user-friendly service I have tried to use in a long time. Very difficult to get the service they REQUIRED of me, without asking my permission. Also very little support or way of resolving repeated issues which prevented me from activating the account.

ID.me login verification
February 1, 2026

ID.me's account creation process is straightforward and works. However when selecting the video call verification option be prepared to wait.
Took almost 2.5 hours to get the video call with a representative. Once connected, the verification process was completed in less than 10 minutes.

Thank you,

INVASIVE AT BEST
February 1, 2026

Took forever to complete and the selfie process takes several tries. It feels like this info will be shared by other parties and governments.

Extremely annoying
January 31, 2026

I highly wouldn't recommend this website unless it's like your last resort you can print it out for unemployment and just file it by hand lately. This website has been getting people issues and I went in person and talked to somebody at the DES office and informed them about that and they informed me that this website has been giving numerous of peoples issues were they're incapable on filing for unemployment through this website.
