… und effektiv. Kann die schlechten reviews nicht nachvollziehen. Alles hat beim ersten Versuch geklappt, klare und übersichtliche Anweisungen.

Hat alles geklappt - iPhone 15 Pro Max

Ich muss sagen, ich war zunächst abgeschreckt von der App Bewertung und wollte es lieber Online machen. Aber die offizielle Seite gov.uk hat auf diese App verwiesen also habe ich es doch über die App probiert und es hat auf anhieb alles reibungslos geklappt.

Umlaute!

Bin immer wieder an der Eingabe meiner Adresse gescheitert. Die Zeile 1 wollte die App nicht akzeptieren. Bin erst durch eine Rezession drauf gekommen, dass es an der Mühlgasse liegen könnte. Mit Muehlgasse gab es keine Probleme mehr. Vielen Dank an die Kommentierenden!

Zahlung geht nicht seid Wochen

Frustratingly narrow and chaotic and unnecessarily expensive

Fanboy_erster_Stunde on

Germany

This app may suffice for the standard, individual visa application — but as soon as you step outside that narrow scenario, it collapses. There is no clear guidance on what to do if you cannot or do not wish to use the app, which is a serious accessibility flaw. More critically, the app becomes borderline unusable when applying for family members. The user flow for a child applicant is absurd — as if the toddler is expected to fill out their own details. The interface is clunky, unintuitive, and clearly not tested against real-world user needs beyond the “ideal case”. And to add insult to injury, the application comes with a €20 fee — significantly more than what a British national pays to visit the EU, where short-term stays are visa-free. It leaves the distinct impression that EU citizens are being unfairly charged for a digital process that’s barely fit for purpose. In short: the app is as chaotic, limited, and unhelpful as the Brexit process that made it necessary.
