UIDAI's New Aadhaar App: Selective Share Feature Explained | Paperless Identity Verification (2026)

Get ready for a game-changer in identity verification! The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has unveiled a beta version of its revamped Aadhaar app, promising a safer and more efficient way to manage your identity.

With the Aadhaar Act of 2016, Aadhaar has become a vital part of millions of Indians' lives. The previous mAadhaar app offered basic services, but the new Aadhaar app takes it to the next level.

Say goodbye to the hassle and security risks of physical copies! The new app introduces a revolutionary 'selective share' feature, allowing users to share only the necessary data for verification, instead of the entire 12-digit Aadhaar number.

But here's where it gets controversial...

This feature empowers users to share specific details like name, address, photo, date of birth, email, and mobile number, without revealing their full Aadhaar number. It's a game-changer for privacy and security, but some might argue it's a step towards a more controlled digital identity.

And this is the part most people miss...

The new app also introduces face authentication and multi-profile support, making it even more secure and convenient. No more worrying about lost or misused photocopies!

So, how can you get your hands on this innovative app?

Here's a simple guide to download and activate the new Aadhaar app:

  1. Download the app from the Google Play Store (Android) or Apple App Store (iOS).
  2. On first launch, enter your Aadhaar number.
  3. Verify your registered mobile number by entering the OTP received.
  4. Authenticate your identity using your face.
  5. Add your Aadhaar information to the app.
  6. Set a six-digit PIN to secure your account.

With these simple steps, you'll be ready to experience the future of identity verification!
