THE eGovPH Super App has reached 40 million downloads, the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) said on Monday, meeting the government’s 2026 target and putting it on track to hit its 60-million user goal by 2028.
The eGovPH app, which serves as a one-stop-shop for public services, is also being complemented with physical hubs, with the latest Bagong Pilipinas eGovPH Serbisyo Hub launching in Mandaue City, the DICT said in a statement.
“Whether through the eGovPH super app or the eGov Serbisyo Hub, we are bringing services closer to our kababayans,” David L. Almirol, Jr. was quoted as saying.
The newly opened hub gives Cebuanos access to services from agencies such as the Social Security System, Philippine Statistics Authority, Department of Labor and Employment, Department of Health, and Department of Social Welfare and Development.
The DICT said the government’s dual approach is designed to eliminate congestion in government offices and reduce opportunities for fixers, while improving transparency and efficiency. — CAT
