About this app

With the POSTIDENT app, you can verify your identity conveniently and simply by means of your smartphone.

Depending on which of our partner companies you carry out this identification process, you can verify your identity either via POSTIDENT by videochat, POSTIDENT by eID (with your national identity card or the electronic residence title), or fully automatically by creating images of your ID document and profile. With the eID function or the automated verification of your ID document you can verify your identity quickly and securely at any time. Your data will be checked by call center employees of Deutsche Post AG in all further identification procedures. Our employees are available to you from Mondays to Sundays in the hours from 8 AM to 10 PM. In addition, you can retrieve the POSTIDENT coupon for identification in your post office directly via the POSTIDENT app and therefore do not need to print it out anymore.

The identification procedures are compliant with the law, secure and completed in just a few steps. Simply enter the transaction number that you have received from either our partner company or us. The POSTIDENT app will then execute the procedure. At POSTIDENT by videochat, a Deutsche Post employee will explain additionally in detail how the procedure works.

I was so impressed by this technology. But I had to change my review because UNFORTUNATELY it was never able to accept the ID photos that we uploaded. Tried three times, then decided to go back to the old fashioned way by mail with a notarized form. -Sigh- I think it's because we are in the US and it's not set up to recognize our driver licenses or passports.

Had some problems. Needed to use the Chrome browser to activate the app. I used my driver's license front and back. Make sure the image stays within the outline provided, otherwise it rejects. Update: driver's license didn't work, so I tried again with the passport. So what is the back of the passport? Nothing. So I used the signature page as the "back image" and after more tries it was accepted and completed. Well, at least it finally worked, but have to say it needs to be more user friendly.

Easily wins the prize for Worst App for Android! Does not recognize passport, never takes the photo as it highlights it with a green rectangle. Finally asks you to manually enter all details, seems to do something when you click next and miracle!... Goes back to the screen asking you to fill manually all the data. Such an app should be removed by Google.
