According to officials, the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has launched an Android mobile application that will allow people to access examination and recruitment-related information.
The Google Play Store has the mobile application. “Union Public Service Commission has launched UPSC android app on Google play store for accessing all the examination and recruitment related information through mobile,” an official note stated.
“This app, however, would not allow to fill application forms using mobile,” it said.
With India becoming a more smartphone-friendly generation, this app will assist civil service aspirants in obtaining information such as exam dates, application procedures, notifications, and results, among other things. The UPSC administers numerous examinations for central government jobs, including the prestigious civil services examination. Thousands of people apply for them.
However, users who downloaded the app on their smartphones claim that this app is a mini version on the UPSC website. “Just made the website into an application. Need a lot to go. Anyway, a progressive step towards digital governance. Hope it will be upgraded on time, not like IOB online banking application which wasn’t useful for so many years”, wrote one user on Google Play Store comment section. Till now, the app has received a 4.7 rating on the Google Play Store.
