🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. Develop a manual review fallback process for users rejected by automated biometric systems.
  2. Create a troubleshooting guide that provides specific lighting and positioning feedback during the selfie capture.
  3. Implement an alternative verification method using government-issued ID document scanning without requiring a live selfie match.
