New Delhi: Aadhaar Latest App 2026: Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has recently launched the Aadhaar App -- anext-generation mobile application designed to provide Aadhaar Number Holders (ANH) with a secure, convenient and privacy-first way to carry, share, show and verify their digital identity.
The Aadhaar App supports a wide range of real-life use cases. These include hotel check-ins through Offline Verification Seeking Entity’s (OVSE) QR code scanning.
It allows optional face verification, age verification for cinema ticket bookings, hospital admissions for visitors and attendants, verification of gig workers and service partners among many such use cases.
The app also includes advanced functionalities such as face verification for proof of presence, biometric lock/unlock in a single click, viewing of authentication history, and a QR-based contact card for easy sharing of contact details.
It allows management of up to five Aadhaar profiles on a single device, enabling the concept of “One Family – One App.” In addition to address updates, residents can now update their registered mobile number through the app, with more update services planned in the future.

The new additions also comprise of rural housing, online media service provider/streaming services, value added dairy products, barley & its product, pen-drive and external hard disk, attendant, babysitter and exercise equipment. The year-on-year inflation rate based on All India Consumer Food Price Index (CFPI) for the month of January is recorded at 2.13% (Provisional).

In a major relief for customers, banks will now have to prove that a financial product actually suits you before selling it. For the first time, the RBI is making “suitability” a legal requirement. This means that before offering you insurance, mutual funds, or even credit cards, banks must assess factors like your income, age, financial understanding and risk appetite.

Regarding the recent technical glitches at the National Securities Depository Limited (NSDL), the Chairman confirmed that the system is now functioning normally. He explained that a technical issue in the inter-depository transfer system led to settlement backlogs, which were cleared by the weekend.
