#GOODWAY LOGIN VERIFICATION#
We’ve got an initial version of our browser-based route - with a passport check and knowledge-based verification - in limited beta with our partners, the Disclosure and Barring Service. So that’s what we’re working towards… at pace! So, really, my first job was to work out what already exists and negotiate myself to a position of being able to ‘steal with pride’ the excellent work that’s gone on in other departments in this area.Īs one of my key stakeholders said to me, “If you can bring the best of the best under one product set, you’re all set, you’ll be the market leader in government”.
There’s a great sense of purpose and real buzz in the air.

It’s full of bright, enthusiastic people who care passionately about what we’re doing and making our single sign-on and identity-checking solution as easy to use and inclusive for users as we possibly can. So what are my reflections and what have I learned? First of all, the Government Digital Service, or GDS, is a great place to be. I can’t believe it’s been a year already! I remember arriving last September and giving my first ever external-facing presentation and now we’ve got products in beta, a packed dance card for services who want to work with us, and we are well on our way to building up the product suite that our government partners have asked for. It’s been nearly a year since I became the Single Responsible Owner of the One Login for Government programme, and it’s true when they say that time flies when you’re having fun. But here’s the thing: no one department or service is doing it all well. Patterns and processes have grown up over time, and people are able to prove their identity, even though their experiences might be suboptimal, and they might face different hurdles and repetitive steps for different services. Validating somebody’s identity so they can access services is mostly a ‘solved problem’ across government. If it doesn’t, close all open apps and turn your phone on and off again to clear the memory.Our mission to build one fast, simple and secure way for people to access government services is both relatively straightforward, and hugely complex. Reopen it and see if that fixes the problem. Double-tap the Home button and swipe up on the App Store to close the app. Perhaps it’s a memory issue (older iPhones, especially those with less RAM and less storage are prone to this).

Is the app too large to download over 3G?Ī final note for those unable to download apps: remember that iOS stops you downloading really large apps over a cellular connection, so check the size of the file. It’s a good idea to check the terms of your contract to see how much data you’re allowed and to find out the date on which your data allowance is reset.ħ. Unfortunately it’s not straightforward to monitor your data usage on iOS. Have you run out of data?Įven if your settings allow you to download apps over a cellular connection, your data allowance for the month may be maxed out. If you think that the risk of using up data is worth it, Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and tap the slider next to Use Mobile Data at the bottom. Before you turn this on beware that it could mean that your iPhone uses a lot of data downloading updates. There is even a setting that allows your iPhone to use mobile data to automatically download app updates. Go to Settings > iTunes & App Store, and turn the slider to green beside Updates. But it could prove annoying if you have a lot of apps and feel that your iPhone is always downloading updates (and wasting battery life doing so). This could be a handy setting if you are frequently finding apps aren’t working because they need to be updated. While we’re on this topic, there is a separate option that dictates whether your device can automatically download app updates as soon as they appear on the App Store, as long as your iPhone is connected to the internet via Wi-Fi.
