UIDAI earlier launched the mAadhaar app so that people could access Aadhaar services on their mobile phones. It allowed people to view Aadhaar details, download e-Aadhaar, and share basic information digitally.
Now, the authority is upgrading the system with a new Aadhaar app, which is more advanced and focused on security, privacy, and easier verification. “Enjoy a smoother concert entry experience with Aadhaar app,” the UIDAI wrote on X.
