News India Live, Digital Desk: Do you also feel stressed just by the name of government offices? The same long lines, “Sir is not on the seat yet” replies, and the hassle of getting 50 photocopies of documents. Truth be told, we all have been troubled by this at some point or the other.
But friends, the year 2025 has come (today is 12th December). Gone are the times when one had to waste the entire day for small tasks. ‘Digital India’ has really made our life a lot easier, the only thing that is lacking is information.
Today I will tell you about those 6 Government Mobile Apps I am going to tell you about it, which should be in the phone of every Indian. These apps will save you time, money and most of all ‘brain curd’. Let us understand in simple language.
1. DigiLocker Your digital wallet
If you still carry the original marksheet or driving license in your pocket, then stop. DigiLocker is a government recognized app.
- What is the work: You can keep all your documents (PAN card, Aadhar, marksheet, vehicle RC) in digital form.
- Biggest advantage: If the traffic police stops you and you show your license in DigiLocker, they will have to accept it. This is 100% valid. The fear of losing the original is also over!
2. UMANG App: One app, many functions
If you hate downloading 10 apps for different purposes, then ‘Umang’ is the ‘Baahubali’ app for you.
- What is the work: This is a ‘super app’. In this, checking PF balance, booking gas cylinder, Aadhar card related work and pension information are all available at one place. Now you will not have to visit cafes to withdraw PF money.
3. mParivahan Train Companion
For those who have a car or bike, this is a lifesaver.
- What is the work: Have you ever gone to buy an old second hand car? Just enter the vehicle number in this app, you will know the name of the owner, how old the vehicle is, whether it has insurance or not. Also, if you have any challan issued, it will also be visible here and you can also pay it from here.
4. mAadhaar
Nowadays, even a leaf cannot move without Aadhar card.
- What is the work: Many times we have to show ID somewhere and we do not have the physical Aadhar card. In such a situation, the QR code and profile present in the mAadhaar app makes your work easier. You can also submit a request to change your address in Aadhaar sitting at home from here.
5. Voter Helpline
At the time of elections, you have to sweat while searching for the slip, don’t you?
- What is the work: This Election Commission app lets you check your name in the voter list, locate the polling booth (where to vote) and apply for a new voter ID. This app brings democracy into your pocket.
6. PostInfo or mPassport Seva
Choose the sixth app as per your need. If you invest in post office schemes, PostInfo Best for calculating interest rates and insurance.
At the same time, if you plan to go abroad, then mPassport Service Helps you track passports and book appointments. There is no need to pay the agent!
My advice (Pro Tip):
Friends, smartphones are not just for watching reels or playing games. Download these apps from Play Store or App Store today and keep them logged in. Don’t know when and at what point they may be needed. Be smart yourself and install these apps in the phones of elders in the house too.
You will know how much easier your life can be only after using them!
