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 “myGov” right after the option got available. Since then I was using “myGov” 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 Android” so I downloaded the App again ON THE SAME DEVICE “Android 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!
This app is essentially a OTP (one time password) generator but foolishly the myGov system has crippled what is normally a very powerful and convenient mechanism for increasing security. You have to use this dedicated app and cannot link up existing systems like Google Auth, Authy or 1Password etc that are designed for exactly this purpose. You can only have the app active on one device. If you lose it or it breaks unexpectedly you are screwed and will be locked out of your account. With every other OTP system you can activate it on more than one device, and in more than one app to provide some redundancy. This is industry practice and it is baffling why myGov has invented their own crippled system instead. It is strongly recommended this system be avoided until myGov allows use of third party OTP apps.
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 MyGov. 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.
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.
