The app will empower Aadhaar number holders to share only necessary data while availing the services of their choice.

It will give Aadhaar number holders complete control over their personal information.

The app, currently in beta testing, will eliminate the need to carry a physical copy of the Aadhaar card.

For example, if you are checking into a hotel, you can digitally verify Aadhaar details

Scan the QR code provided by the vendor and authenticate using Face ID or a fingerprint scanner.
