About this app

CivicAid is an independent educational app that helps people in Singapore learn about everyday rights, responsibilities and civic knowledge through simple bite-sized lessons.

The app is designed for students, workers, gig workers, migrant workers, tenants, homemakers, retirees, business owners and other community groups who want to better understand common real-life situations in Singapore.

CivicAid explains topics such as employment rights, workplace situations, housing and rental matters, HDB-related information, healthcare access, citizenship information, consumer protection, digital safety, family-related laws and other civic topics in plain language.

Users can learn through short lessons, preparation cards, quick-response situation cards, quizzes and progress tracking. The goal is to make civic and legal knowledge easier to understand, especially for people who may find official legal or government information difficult to read.

CivicAid is not a government app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, authorised by or representative of the Singapore Government or any government agency. CivicAid provides general educational information only and is not a substitute for professional legal advice.

Official source links are provided in the app so users can verify information directly from the relevant Singapore Government or official public sources.
