The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has finally launched its new Aadhaar App. UIDAI shared this information on the social media platform X, stating that the experience of digitally storing and using your Aadhaar card will now be much easier and more secure. This app is available on both Android and iOS platforms.
The purpose of this app is to eliminate the need for people to carry a physical copy of their Aadhaar card everywhere. The new app not only allows for digital storage but also takes identity verification, data sharing, and security features to the next level. Today, we'll tell you five key features of this new Aadhaar app. Let's explore them...
Digital Aadhaar will always be with you
The first feature is that you no longer need to carry a physical copy of your Aadhaar card. The new app keeps your Aadhaar safe on your phone and also allows for instant verification using a QR code.
Easy Verification with Face Authentication
The app incorporates Face ID technology, allowing you to verify your Aadhaar simply by scanning your face. This eliminates the need for an OTP or biometric device, making it even more powerful.
Control Sharing
With this new app, users can now choose which Aadhaar information they want to share with an organization or individual. For example, you can share your name and photo, but keep your address or date of birth hidden.
Biometric Lock
This new UIDAI app also features a unique biometric lock and unlock feature. If you wish, you can lock your Aadhaar card with your fingerprint and face data to prevent anyone else from using it.
Add Family Aadhaar Cards
Not only this, this app also allows you to store the Aadhaar cards of all family members in one place. This makes it possible to access each family member's documents with just one click. With all these features, this app looks quite impressive.
How to set up the Aadhaar app?
First, download the Aadhaar app from the Play Store or App Store.
After that, open the app, grant the necessary permissions, and enter your Aadhaar number.
Here, verify using OTP or face authentication.
After that, set a security PIN and start using the app.
