Australia's Minister for Government Services and the NDIS, Bill Shorten, announced that the myGov app has reached 5.6 million users and accounted for over 122 million sign-ins in the past 18 months, with more than one-third of daily sign-ins utilizing the app. The myGov app now includes biometric security features and passkeys for secure logins. Since December 2022, over 1.5 million digital items have been added to the myGov wallet. The national digital trust exchange (TEx) is currently in proof-of-concept and aims to streamline identity verification for services like banking. Major companies, including Google and Telstra, are consulting on TEx’s development. The introduction of TEx has replaced previous plans to integrate mobile driver’s licenses into myGov. The TEx initiative is part of the Albanese government's digital ID strategy, which includes myGovID used by over 10 million Australians. Critics have called for more public consultation and have raised concerns about public trust due to past government technology failures, such as the Robodebt scandal.
