I have an e-sim and after the most recent app update the app is no longer working.  It opens and I can't access any of the functions and my number is  faded.  I have followed  the steps in other posts, clear network settings, deleted and restored the app etc.

Hi ​@Emgregor ,

 

Thank you for your message. I’m sorry to hear the app isn’t working properly after the update. Here are some troubleshooting steps to try:
 

Restart your phone – A full reboot can sometimes resolve app glitches.

Check for further updates – Ensure both your phone’s operating system and the iD Mobile app are fully updated.

Reinstall the app – Delete the app, restart your device, then reinstall the latest version.

Check internet connection – Try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data to see if the app loads correctly.

Try another device – If possible, log in on another phone or tablet to see if the issue persists.

Thanks for sharing this.  I’m sorry to hear you’re experiencing issues with the app after the update.

It sounds like you’ve already tried the usual steps (clearing network settings, reinstalling the app).

Hi no uninstalling and reinstalling didn’t help, it looks like the app is struggling to get a full login and putting my data from your databases.. I get the same as everyone else and it’s obviously a widespread issue,

thanks,

Ade

Thanks for confirming ​@adefr88. We’ve confirmed it’s an issue with the new “Show Borders” Accessibility toggle. Apple are working on a fix, as are our App Team.

We’ve put communications out with steps how to turn off the toggle, or alternatively, using my.idmobile.co.uk.

Thanks.

Odd, the iD Mobile app works on my iPhone 17 Pro running iOS 26.3 with this setting enabled and disabled ​@Matthew T.

@WelshPaul -

How strange! We’ve just been testing on a call this morning and everyone who turned it on, it then broke! Will be interesting if others in the thread can fix it by turning it off (or didn't have it switched on in the first place!)

Perfect that’s fixed it thanks 👍

For me, it has always been off. I enabled it after reading your post out of curiosity.

As you can see, I’m having no problems accessing the app with the setting enabled. It’ll be interesting to see if your suggestion resolves the issue for those who do.

@Emgregor -

Apologies, I don’t see iPhone 16 in your original post, but thanks for sharing! Could you please check if you have “Show Borders” option on in the Settings? We believe this is causing the issue and Apple and are our App Team are working on a fix.

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Tap Accessibility.
  3. Tap Display & Text Size.
  4. Turn the Show Borders toggle to OFF.

Thanks.
