The digital identity app ‘myGovID’ has changed its name to ‘myID’. While the name has changed, the login and security will not change.
The new name aims to reduce the confusion between myGovID and myGov.
Taxpayers who have already set up their myGovID and use it to access government online services will not need to do anything when the app changes to myID. They will still have:
- the same details — there is no need to set up a new myID. Their login details (including email address) and identity strength remain the same;
- continued use — once available their existing app should automatically update to myID or they can manually update it from the APP Store or Google Play; and
- access to services — they can still use the app to securely access government online services.
