What? You can't use an alternative app. It's government issued identification and required for life here.

I (and as far as I can tell, all others) can't get it to work outside of android

  1. Android app
  2. Apple app
  3. “Code display”
  4. “Code reader”

Does not appear to “require” Android.

Fascinating. I knew about the key fob but not the little pedometer looking thing.

I wonder how it actually works, since a lot of it is integrated into apps and I don't see a spot to instead type a code. I'll have to play with it
