Community Voice & Feedback
Couldn’t enroll because after trying a couple times to enter my physical address, it denied completely saying I need to contact the support, it’s been more than a week they haven’t responded at all, that’s the way they support their developers.
There’s a major issue with verifying an ID in the developer app program enrollment. The camera UI gets out of focus, making my ID appear blurred. It doesn’t automatically focus, which makes it difficult to capture and submit a clear picture of my ID. The passport section is clear, but I need to check the ID camera as soon as possible.
The app is awful, no document is accepted when you do the developer enrollment
Camera doesn’t focus on ID so you have to move the phone further back, at which point the ID is not in the frame anymore and the app complains that the ID is not legible. Really frustrating experience
The app crashes when it tries to upload images of my id during the developer enrollment process

If this is your idea of a fun time, you will get hours of entertainment from this app!

The camera for id verification never focus when the id is very close to the camera
Some video controls are not working as expected, Picture in Picture and sometimes Pause or Play.
This is incredibly annoying, especially from an act developed by Apple for developers
The worst of times.
iPhone 15 Camera will not focus to take picture of ID to join developer program.
Apple literally failed to auto-renew our $99/year account for an app that is making them hundreds per day, ripped the app from the App Store without warning, and their purchase flow is completely broken in this app preventing renewal.
Why are all the ratings so bad? My Apple ID works normally, and the app is just too perfect! Why so many complaints?
devs and users that want to learn can use this app (: it does not matter how the app looks either! the app looks great like I said.

5 attempts to take id photos. All were rejected because app won’t focus on id correctly and creates fuzzy images.
So bad it won’t focus the picture during verification I literally can’t submit a decent pic
