Twenty-four new government services have been added to the MyGov mobile app, covering a range of sectors including organ donation, announced Information and eGovernment Authority (iGA) chief executive Mohammed Al Qaed yesterday.
The app is available through the eGovernment Apps Store, bahrain.bh/apps.
The services include the Interior Ministry, Civil Defence, Criminal Investigation, Traffic, Transportation and Telecommunications Ministry and Electricity and Water.
The ID card issuance service has also been enhanced with the introduction of an organ donation icon option as well as expanded support features such as payment notifications and emergency alerts.
Mr Al Qaed stated that work continues to expand the digital services, aimed at integrating the various apps onto three primary platforms: ‘MyGov’ for individuals, ‘AlTajir’ for businesses and investors and ‘Visit Bahrain’ for visitors.
Furthermore, the Government Directory and Bahrain Post app will soon be discontinued after merging its postal services.
The Electricity and Water app services have been integrated with MyGov, to be followed by the eTraffic app services.
Both apps will then be discontinued, along with the Student Exam Results app, with services being offered via alternative channels.
Since its launch in the first quarter of this year, MyGov has been downloaded more than 500,000 times. The secure login via eKey 2.0 has also seen more than 450,000 downloads since its launch in February.
