New Aadhaar App: In our country, the Aadhaar card is currently an essential identity document. From banking tasks to availing benefits of government schemes, the Aadhaar card is required everywhere. Therefore, any update related to the Aadhaar card is extremely important for us. Recently, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has made a major announcement for Aadhaar users. A new mobile application will soon be launched to replace the old mAadhaar app. Let’s find out the details about this new app.
Why this new app?
The mAadhaar app provides users with the convenience of carrying a digital Aadhaar card. However, with time, technological improvements are needed. UIDAI is introducing this new app with the aim of making the user experience easier and better. The new app is expected to have more features and an improved user interface compared to the old one. It is currently in the experimental stage and is expected to be available to everyone by December 2025.
What benefits will be available in the new app?
The main goal of this new app is to make Aadhaar-related services more user-friendly. Special attention has been paid to enabling users to easily complete their necessary tasks. Below are some of the notable benefits of the new app:
- Easy Aadhaar Download: Users can now download their digital Aadhaar card (e-Aadhaar) faster and more easily.
- Address Update Facility: If you need to change your address, it can be done more easily through this app. The address update process has been made much simpler than before.
- PVC Card Order: You can now easily apply for a new PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride) Aadhaar card. These cards are durable and easy to carry.
- Service Center Information: Finding your nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra (Aadhaar Service Center) will be easier.
An Important Limitation
Amidst so many benefits, one thing needs to be kept in mind. You cannot update your mobile number from home using the new app. Linking a mobile number with an Aadhaar card is a very sensitive process. It requires biometric verification, which is an important layer of security. Therefore, to add or change your mobile number, you must visit your nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra and complete the biometric process there. This is an essential step to ensure the security of your Aadhaar information.
This new app will undoubtedly bring a great advantage to Aadhaar card users. As the services become more accessible, the hassle for the general public will be reduced, and time will be saved.
