The country’s Unique Identification Authority of India is going to launch a new Aadhaar app. It is believed that this new app will change the work of verifying identity cards in India in one fell swoop. This app will not only be paperless. This app will completely hide your identity card information from other people. As a result, the long-standing practice of submitting a Xerox of Aadhaar card or voter ID card as proof of identity will come to an end.
Why is the new app so important?
UIDAI Chief Executive Officer Bhuvnesh Kumar has clearly stated that the main objective of this app is to prevent misuse and fraud of Aadhaar cards. And that is why reducing the dependence on physical copies will maintain your privacy.
Offline Verification
With this app, your identity can be verified even if there is no internet connection. Hotel check-in or entry into a residential society—everything will be done securely.
Control in your hands
You can decide which information to share. If necessary, instead of the full Aadhaar number, only the QR code or your face verification will work.
Biometric Lock
This new app has the facility to lock or unlock your biometric data with one click. Which will increase security manifold.
Special benefits for families
With this app, you can keep the Aadhaar information of five members of your family in one place. This will also make the process of updating mobile number or address easier. With this new method, any verification will be completed in a moment.
With this new app, if you go to verify Aadhaar information anywhere, you will have complete control over your information. UIDAI’s goal is to reduce the risk of misuse of information to zero. As a result, this new app will change the very concept of identity cards in the coming days.
