Gov.uk App set for release in summer 2025

From Public Technology:

The incoming Gov.uk App will serve nine “core functions” and is set for a wide-scale public release about a year from now, PublicTechnology can reveal.

Plans for the app – which will offer citizens the ability to access hundreds of departmental services from a single mobile program – were first announced in October 2021. The software was originally due to be launched by the end of 2022 ...

The commercial documents outline that the technology will incorporate nine core elements of functionality:

  - Identity – including the ability for users to log in, then manage an account and their personal preferences

  - Apply – allowing users to make digital applications, renewals and registrations
