AadhaarFaceRD

Unique Identification Authority of India

About this app

This application is designed to function as a headless app, meaning it cannot be opened directly from the Play Store or your device's app drawer, nor will you find an application icon in your app drawer. It works in collaboration with the Aadhaar Authentication User Agency (AUA), the KYC User Agency (KUA), and other entities.

How the Application Works:
Since the application is headless, there is no option to open it directly from your device. Instead, it is invoked by an AUA or KUA that you are interacting with. When you need to authenticate your identity, the AUA/KUA will trigger the FaceRD application to perform the necessary operations. This design ensures that your interactions with the app are seamless and secure, without requiring you to manually open or interact with the app itself.

Security and Privacy:
This design choice prioritizes your security by minimizing the points of direct interaction and potential vulnerabilities. By being triggered only by authorized agencies, the application reduces the risk of unauthorized access.

Ratings and reviews

The application doesn't have open option after installation and either it is not showing anywhere in the home screen and app drawer also.In playstore showing option after installation is "uninstall". worst experience from the very prestigious and reputed government department. I never ever expected such type of experience.

The app has been installed, but there is no open option, I can not find it in my app screen or homescreen as well. When I try to find this app in the Play Store to open from there, the open option isn't there either. The same thing happened on my friend's phone as well, and both our phones are samsung, but other mobiles of samsung are able to use it without any issue. Worst app experience, how is a government app having such issues.

The app downloaded is not seen on any screen nor can be opened from playstore. 3 screens are shown in the playstore which also do not work. one cannot tick the check box to move ahead. there is no point of such facility and wasting time on it. better to go to the concerned office and get your formalities completed. useless
