UIDAI mAadhaar app: Now, you can carry your Aadhaar in your smartphone

The app, available on Google Play Store, is currently limited only for users of Android 5.0 and above
LATEST NEWS : The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has launched the mAadhaar app, a digital tool that allows holders of Aadhaar numbers to carry their in their smartphones. The app syncs all information available on your Aadhaar, such as demographic details, name, date of birth, gender, postal address and photograph, after you link your Aadhaar with the app.
Now that is a convenient way to carry Aadhaar everywhere, all the time. The app also allows you to lock and unlock your biometric data — a feature that was earlier possible only through the UIDAI web portal.
For safety and security reasons, the mAadhaar app uses a two-layer authentication. The app has a Google Authenticator-like one-time password generation tool within the app for this purpose. The OTPs generated by the tool are read by the app automatically; there is no way to enter them manually.
The app allows you to update your profile using the app, and the change reflects in the app once they are approved.
