About this app

The Message Box app can only be used in combination with the DigiD app. The DigiD app must be on the same device and you use the PIN of the DigD app to open the Message Box app.

With the app you have access to the inbox, archive and trash can of your Message Box on MyGovernment. You can read and move messages to the archive or trash. If a message has an attachment, you can forward it, save it or open it in another app. In the app you can see which new organizations have started using the Message Box and you can indicate whether these organizations are allowed to send mail digitally to you. Currently it is not yet possible to adjust your preferences for organizations that are already affiliated. You can log in to this on the website of mijn.overheid.nl.

Repeatedly complains that I cannot login because of a server error with the server that manages pincodes. Has been like this for almost a week. I cannot get in to see the message that has been sent to me. It may be something quite important. No offline help available for problems such as these. I tried hitting retry over and over... after a dozen times it worked. Then the app gave a different error and crashed. It put up a message saying "Laden..." and stayed like that for half an hour.

Whenever the government wants me to pay for something it's in a PDF file which the app doesn't let you copy text from properly (the built-in PDF reader does support selecting and copying, but often hitting copy will copy random nonsense to the clipboard). It's a huge chore to get anything done. Not completely the app's fault the users sending messages use PDFs instead of just putting things in the message itself but the end result is the same: everything is a chore

Never got problems in the past but now it has a bug which causes the app to get stuck in a loop. On my android the digiD app causes a "split screen" view on its own after confirming inlog details, Berichtenbox than displays an error and redirecting you to login with digiD app again and again. To me it seems both apps causing errors which makes them now completely useless. Hope this'll get solved ASAP.
