Support for a number of new features has been added to Samsung Wallet in India. The Samsung Wallet software will now allow owners of the company’s Samsung Galaxy handsets to safely store official papers. In the Wallet app, users will also be able to replenish and manage their FASTag funds. Customers of Samsung in India, where the majority of those with smartphones and Internet access are used to using digital services for regular transactions, will find the update to be more easy.
The Samsung Wallet app can now securely store and display digital versions of PAN cards, Aadhaar cards, driver’s licences, vehicle registration records, as well as Co-WIN immunisation certificates, according to a press release released on Monday. Gadgets 360 was able to verify that a vaccination certificate may be saved and shown via the Samsung Wallet app on compatible Galaxy handsets.According to the business, the revised Wallet software for users in India would integrate the Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass features and enable users to book and store rail tickets in addition to boarding permits for flights. Additionally, they will be able to manage FASTag balance and recharge via the app.
According to the business, no user-stored papers will ever be gathered by Samsung, and all data is kept only on the device. In addition to supporting biometric authentication, the app secures user data using the Samsung Knox platform.
Users of eligible Galaxy smartphones can update their current Samsung Pay service by downloading the Samsung Wallet app. Not all Samsung smartphones will, however, enable the upgrade. Searching for Samsung Pay on the Galaxy Store is the simplest way to see if your phone is compatible with the app; only compatible phones will be able to download it.
