SECURITY

You can access sensitive health data, such as your TK-Safe electronic patient file, via the TK-Ident app. This data has a particularly high need for protection and therefore also high security requirements. In order to use the app, secure identification is required. Simply use the online identification function of your ID card or your health card with PIN. We also ask you to repeat this identification at regular intervals.

Our security concept for TK-Ident is based on strict legal requirements. In order to be able to offer you a good and safe customer experience, we are constantly developing our concept.

FURTHER DEVELOPMENT

We are continuously improving the TK-Ident app – your ideas and tips help us the most. Please write to us at service@tk.de.

REQUIREMENT

- TK insured
- Android 9 or higher
- Unchanged Android operating system, without root or similar.

As clunky as one would expect, given the legislation, but functional. Please add a language option separate from the system language, as the English localisation is, as always in Germany, terrible, and I would much rather use a comprehensible German UI.

Laughable Bad Tends to ask for the PIN at each single step of the authentication process, not just the beginning. Hangs in a never ending loop without proper timeout. Generic error messages that don't provide any info. I know how two factor authentication is supposed to work. This is not it. I don't have any clue how tech iliteraterate people are supposed to work with it Definitely don't want to hear anything more about low acceptance of ePA in Germany if this is it Its a joke

If you see an error, please reinstall the app. In the app, you create your own PIN and then identify yourself. Once the app is set up, it can be used to authenticate other applications, such as the electronic patient record. If you have any questions or need help, just drop us a line at technischer-service@tk.de. Best regards, TK-Ident App

It worked great, but now unfortunately security theater was added, not allowing me to use the app on GrapheneOS. RE to the reply: GrapheneOS is more secure than the stock OS. There is guidance available on their website on how to implement attestation to satisfy legal requirements and not exclude GrapheneOS.
