Aadhaar authentication comes to private apps, here’s what it means for users

The government has started allowing private mobile apps to integrate Aadhaar-enabled face authentication. This move aims to make it easier for users to access private services and improve convenience by streamlining the process of verifying identity on private apps. The integration will be done through the Aadhaar Good Governance portal, which provides a standardised procedure for Aadhaar authentication. What is the Aadhaar Good Governance portal

The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) introduced the Aadhaar Good Governance portal last week to simplify the approval process for Aadhaar authentication requests.
