Top 3 Government Apps for Seniors: Anushka Rathod's Must-Haves

In today's digital era, empowering our parents with the right tools is no longer a luxury, it's a necessity too.

Finance content creator Anushka Rathod stresses the importance of making our parents digitally independent with the three essential government apps. 

These apps ensure full safety, accessibility, and convenience for the elderly users who may not always have help nearby.

1. 112 India App – 

For Emergency Assistance

Anushka highly recommends the 112 India App, a single emergency helpline that easily connects the users to police, ambulance, and even fire services. 

The app shares the real-time location with emergency responders and features an SOS button, making it very ideal for parents who live alone or even travel independently.

2. UMANG App – 

For All Government Services in One Place

The UMANG App (Unified Mobile Application for New-age Governance) brings together the 2000+ government services. It's very perfect for elderly citizens who want to:

Check the EPF and pension balances

Access the health records using ABHA ID

Book the gas cylinder refills

Pay utility bills with much ease

Its very simple interface makes the navigation very easy, even for those less familiar with the smartphones.

3. DigiLocker – 

For Safe and Paperless Documentation

Say goodbye to those bulky files. DigiLocker is a secure digital storage space where your parents can store the important documents like:

Aadhaar and PAN

Driving license

Insurance policies

Vaccination records and much more

These documents are highly government-verified and accessible at almost any time, reducing your dependency on the physical paperwork.

Empower Your Parents Today-

Anushka's thoughtful recommendations are a reminder that the digital literacy for older generations isn't just about the convenience, it's about safety, dignity, and independence too.

So take just a few minutes today to install these apps for your parents. 

It's a very simple act of care that can make a very big difference in their everyday routine.
