Top Pcmac Reviews

  • Not a MyGov app - just a login token generator

    By Ribbles23 (Pcmac user)

    Usually an app is developed to allow users a better experience than navigating a website on a mobile device. Not so with this app, it does not allow a user into the app. The geniuses at the Australian Federal Government decided to waist taxpayer dollars reinventing the virtual two-factor Authenticator, already provided for free by google and others. This app has no value.
  • Horrible for overseas citizens!

    By Nader.In.USA (Pcmac user)

    The whole idea is great which is Security. However the way that its been implemented is HORRIBLE! I’m an Australian Citizen, created all my ATO, Medicare, Centrelink accounts back in 2010 or 2011 and linked them all to “the app” right after the option got available. Since then I was using “the app” with my User & Pass without any issues. I left Australia & I’m in the USA and all I have is my true Username & Password, with no more active Australian phone number. Recently had to “Restore my iPhone” so I downloaded the App again ON THE SAME DEVICE “iPhone X” which the App was working on it earlier BUT stupidly the app says, “ Already connected on another device! “ which is NOT RIGHT! What is this?! Why you’re not able to predict such a simple thing?! This application has blocked my access to everything & I’m on the other side of the world. I can’t sign up again! It seems like if one ATM machine is not working, then you should open a new account!!! Get it fixed! I got the legal advise that all the legal consequences should be addressed to this unwise application. Get it fixed! Make it usable!
  • Terrible

    By MonkeyLG68 (Pcmac user)

    Ok, so I download and can’t get out of the first step which is the code you have 30 seconds to use. But doesn’t tell you to have the site already open to start. Then once I did that the app just kept producing the30 sec code over and over. Couldn’t use the app so had to delete it.
