How do I change my e-mail address? Not knowing better, used the address on my desk top to fill out the form but I will be using my cell phone when I am travelling, It is g-mail address. I noticed the same problem in some of the comments above but no where were any solutions given. Will it be easier just to do a new arrive ArriveCAN form? Ernest Mayer

I have been trying all evening to log into my Arrivecan app. Keep getting message “Please check that the email address and password you entered are correct, and that your device is connected to the internet.” I have tried numerous times to use the “forgot password” feature and gotten verification codes. All to no avail. HELP! I am supposed to go to Canada on Thursday, August 26. I have tried to delete my account so I can start over but have not been successful doing that either.

Trying to create an account for 2 days. Correct e-mail and password entered. When I click on Sign-In, I keep getting an error message to check my e-mail/password. There is something seriously wrong with the ArriveCan app. We are from Nova Scotia, live in the U.S. and have waited 2 years to go to our cottage in Nova Scotia. I spent a few hours this morning on the phone trying to get help, ArriveCan Information Line staff walked me through the steps literally on my computer. Still getting error messages!!!! I wanted to check the app in advance of our trip to see if there would be any issues. I am glad I did. If I had waited until departure date to complete and submit within 72 hours, this sign-in issue would have cost me in terms of a cancelled motel reservation. We planned to leave on 8/31 but it's not looking good at all. If I can't access the ArriveCan app, no trip!! So disappointed!!!!

Hello Sir/Madam, I arrived in Canada on 25th Jan.2021. I updated my details in ArriveCAN app before the arrival, and also provided the receipt at the border service. However, even though it says that it sends a push notification to fill up the daily self assessment of COVID symptoms, I haven't received anything so far. Kindly advice how to proceed. Thank you!

By Onikooma


Seriously Unnecessary & Confusing

First and foremost I’d like to say we all waited for 2 years for the border to open up. But how can you cross now? I have your answer. A complicated app that requires to capture your passport, drivers license and COVID results but in reality you don’t 🤣 *BOTH American and Canadian border websites must act updated 24/7 on how you need requirements to cross the border. My boyfriend and I ALWAYS check both websites and we’ve never seen anybody update it until “August 21” the big opening to cross. Little did I know, I had all my information by hand and I was immediately refused by Canadian officers because I did not have proof that I needed a NEGATIVE PCR test. This was the day after they had opened the border. Everything had to be electronically documented on the Arrive Canada App and again I didn’t know since their website was not updated. I was frustrated waiting to be sent back to America along with other people waiting in their cars. Also, I had a bad experience with officers from BOTH sides. That was not my day…

Doesn’t recognize names nor dates

I tried all possible border crossing names but none was accepted. There is no list to chose from. If you want to use the app AFTER arrival, you are out of luck, as it only recognizes dates in the future, not in the past. For me, the app was a complete non-starter. But it gets worse: at my second attempt BEFORE arrival, using the “forget password” option produces a popup that blocks the text field, so you are stuck. Sorry, not working. For an “essential” app to cross the border it’s a major nightmare. PS: Getting far worse: after choosing a strong automatic password on my iPhone, the automatic fill in first replaces my email address with the confirmation number and then doesn’t find my password because it looks for some Canadian website. The last problem may be an iOS problem but I am sure the app developers could have avoided that - like all the other app developers who managed to do so. Sorry guys: one of the worst apps I used in along time.

ArriveCAN

Far too difficult for a 71 year old to first understand the 72 hour time limit when we have to be at the airport 3 hours ahead and we board the plane at least 20-30 minutes ahead. So when it says 72 hours ahead of boarding plane or scheduled departure time you are really not saying 72 hours ahead. I had to go in over and over again to be able to register. Very frustrating and no I will not be coming to Canada again. Trying to register on an iPhone is difficult but had to use it so we could download app. Some of the areas during registration were hard to get to because they would be covered up by some “message”. And I wasn't sure what you were asking. Ex: near the end it mentioned having to do something in Canada in one area but wanted me to fill in the United States of America as my place of originating or citizenship although I did not understand what your application wanted. I tried 3 or 4 times until I understood that. This was a very frustrating process. Also you wanted covid tests to be within 72 hours which puts it very close to departure time and date. Especially since you wanted the results before boarding time. Did I mention I have been frustrated for 3 days trying to “jump through hoops?” I pray Canada will not disappoint on our first vacation out of the country in several years and first land tour in Canada.
