"Living in New York, handling Portuguese bureaucracy used to mean long trips to the consulate. With gov.pt, I can sign official documents and manage my ID entirely from my phone. It is the ultimate tool for any expat wanting to save time and stay organized."

Summary

User reviews for this app are overwhelmingly negative, citing persistent issues with general functionality, stability, and crucial features. Many users report frequent app crashes, freezing, and infinite loading screens, particularly during the facial recognition step which often prevents them from completing essential processes like activating their Digital Mobile Key (CMD). The app also consistently fails to recognize newer models of the Portuguese Citizen Card and struggles to send SMS verification codes, especially impacting international users. This combination of bugs makes the app largely unusable for many, leading to widespread frustration and a low overall satisfaction.
