TOP INSIGHTS

A weekly roundup of ID.me Authenticator's key feedback

1

Customer Support Issues

A significant number of users express frustration over the lack of effective customer support, with many unable to reach a human representative and finding the AI chat bot unhelpful. Approximately 30% of users seem affected by this issue.

I can't get any help from this useless company, and the chat bot just runs me in circles.

2

Authentication Loop

Users frequently report being stuck in an endless loop when trying to authenticate, with the app and website directing them back and forth without resolution. This issue appears to affect around 25% of users.

The app sends me in circles, asking me to verify on the website, which then tells me to use the app.

3

Push Notification Problems

Many users are experiencing issues with push notifications not working as expected, which complicates the authentication process. This problem seems to impact about 20% of users.

The app won't allow me to approve notifications without opening it, which defeats the purpose of push notifications.

4

Device and MFA Setup Challenges

Users report difficulties in setting up or transferring multi-factor authentication (MFA) when changing devices, leading to access issues. This affects approximately 15% of users.

I got a new phone, and now I can't access my accounts because the app won't let me set up MFA again.
