Known issues with registration and use of Vidua

The Vidua app runs on over 11,000 different Android and iPhone devices with about 600 versions of the operating system.

At Vidua, we strive to provide an consistent and stable user experience across all these devices. We actively monitor and try to resolve issues before users notice them. However, sometimes Vidua may not function properly with a specific device, and these issues cannot always be resolved immediately. Below is an overview of known issues when using Vidua.

Are you experiencing a (technical) problem using Vidua? We apologize for the inconvenience. Please try the following two steps to see if they resolve the issue:

  • Close the app and check if an update is available in the App store or Play store. Install the update and open the app again.
  • Restart your phone and open the app again.

You can also contact our customer service at (+31) (0)70 820 96 80 or klantenservice@vidua.nl. They are happy to assist you, and your feedback helps us continuously improve our product.
