I was led to believe that ID.me was a required to access my social security account. It is not. I would not have gone through the multistep process if I had known this. The introduction to this system should be provided in great detail to all prior to signing people up in the system. Is it mandatory? NO? Then provide this in all introductory information - "You do not have to use the ID.me process" prior walking you through the process.

Easy Enough
December 3, 2024

My first experience with I.D. Me was when I was applying for a VA identification card. It was pretty easy after I figured out how to upload pictures of my Drivers License and got a picture of myself uploaded.
The option to use it for my Social Security account several years later seemed like the right choice. It was easy enough to upload my I.D. material but the video selfie for facial recognition was not so, as after I removed my glasses it was impossible to read the screen after recording. The original instructions said to film in a well lighted area and avoid being backlit. I did, and had to replace my glasses to see that it was too bright, so I moved to a less bright area and filmed my face. Again, failed, move to a darker position. So I moved. It failed again, too dark. I moved to a blank wall in an unlit hallway and it worked, finally. Having to put on my glasses after each session so I could see what I needed to do next was frankly irritating. The print should be much larger and perhaps bolder as well.
The whole irritating facial recognition part, while admittedly necessary is why I did not apply 5 stars.
