Important changes in the 'Smart-ID' app: What users need to know

The 'Smart-ID' app is undergoing significant updates with new features integrated directly into the existing user app without the need for a new download.

The 'Smart-ID' application is set to receive important updates as announced by Allanas Juhe from 'SK ID Solutions'. The new version, named 'Smart-ID+', will not require users to download a new app, thus maintaining user convenience. Instead, the functionalities will enhance the current user experience directly within the existing application, allowing for a smoother transition to the new features.

One of the key updates is a change in the verification process for actions such as logging in or transferring money. Users will now be required to initiate and confirm each transaction directly within the 'Smart-ID' app. This is a significant shift towards ensuring security, as it places the user in control of the transaction initiation, an aspect emphasized by Juhe during his statements. This new requirement means users need to take an active role in their online transactions, enhancing personal security and awareness.

Additionally, the app will offer two methods for action confirmation: through a dynamic QR code when logging in via a computer or using an automatic transition between applications when connecting through a mobile device. These features aim to streamline the user experience while maintaining robust security measures, ensuring that 'Smart-ID' continues to be a trusted method for digital identification and transactions in Lithuania.
