Carrying Aadhaar card on Android becomes easier, courtesy of this Google Wallet update

If you have an Android phone, it is now easier to carry your Aadhaar details than ever – no more photocopies of your Aadhaar PDF file, or even installing the new Aadhaar app. Google’s new Wallet app gets an update, letting you save your Aadhaar details directly on your phone.

In partnership with the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), users can now save their Aadhaar Verifiable Credentials directly in Google Wallet on their Android phones. The integration allows you to carry one of the most important government IDs securely on your smartphone instead of relying on physical cards or printed copies.
