Tips for Troubleshooting:

Polyakova emphasizes the importance of remaining calm and following instructions step-by-step for successful identification in 'Diya'. It is also noted that for those unable to use the app, there are alternative identification methods, including visiting a branch of the Pension Fund of Ukraine.
