EGov PH app to add new features
The government's flagship super app, eGov PH, is set to have new features to further boost ease of access to bureaucratic services. This was announced by President Ferdinand 'Bongbong' Marcos Jr. in his fourth State of the Nation Address (SONA), according to the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT). In particular, the eGov PH app will soon have additional features such as application and renewal of National Bureau of Investigation (NBI) clearances, Beep Card integration for Metro Rail Transit (MRT) and Light Rail Transit (LRT) commuters, and access to the Bureau of Internal Revenue's (BIR) electronic Taxpayer Identification Number (eTIN) system. The eGov app was developed to eliminate long-standing inefficiencies in public service—such as long lines, fixers, and repeat visits to multiple agencies—by delivering key government services through a single digital platform. Currently, the app allows users to renew driver's licenses, access PhilHealth, Pag-IBIG, and GSIS services, process immigration and customs documents for overseas Filipino workers, retrieve digital copies of the PhilSys National ID, create biodata for job applications and many more. The app also provides official government news and advisories to help Filipinos stay informed and avoid misinformation. Marcos has described the flagship app as a central pillar of his administration's efforts to bring government services closer to the people via digital transformation. Launched in 2023, the eGov PH app has so far recorded over 14 million registered users and facilitated over 200 million digital transactions nationwide. In his SONA, the President cited the app's growing global recognition, citing its receipt of the United Nations E-Government Award from the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA) and the 2025 GovMedia Digital Transformation of Year and E-Governance Project of the Year awards in Singapore—accolades that he said reinforce the Philippines' emergence as a regional leader in digital public service innovation. — RF, GMA Integrated News

Marcos wants to raise awareness on use of eGov PH app
President Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr. wants to increase awareness on the use of eGov PH Super app to provide easier access on national and local government services. Marcos made the remark Friday during the launch of EGOV PH Hub in San Juan City. "Iyon lamang kailangan lang natin ipakalat sa taong-bayan na mayroon nang ganito at subukan nila at gamitin nila," Marcos said in his speech. (We have to let our countrymen know that we have this app and that they should try to use it.) The President said government offices and agencies should explain to the public how the application can be utilized. "Ang aming suggestion ay 'yung lahat ng mga iba't ibang ahensiya kapag sila nasa website dapat alam nila na may ganito. Kapag may dumadating sa opisina, ipaliwanag din o bigyan ng kaunting flyer para ipaliwanag," he said. (Our suggestion is that all agencies that have websites should know about this service. If a client arrives in an office, their staff should explain or give a flyer that explains the app.) He said the public no longer needs to go to the hub as they may access government services through the application. "Actually ang katotohanan, hindi ninyo na kailangan pumunta rito. Basta't mayroon kayong connectivity, may Wi-Fi kayo, ito na lang 'yung gagawin ninyo," Marcos added. (The truth is you don't need to come here. As long as you have connectivity, a WiFi connection, this is all you need to do.) The eGov PH Super App, which has more than 13 million users and offers 47 integrated service modules with over 150 million transactions. The Department of Health announced last week that the prices of medicines may be checked through the eGovPH app. The Land Transportation Office (LTO) has also announced that through the eGov PH app, users can download the online system and renew their driver's licenses without going to the agency's offices. — VDV, GMA Integrated News

LTO launches license plate tracker app
Motorcycle owners can check the status of their pending license plates starting Wednesday through the Land Transportation Office (LTO) tracker application, Transportation Secretary Vince Dizon said Tuesday. In a press conference, Dizon said the license plate tracker system can be accessed through the eGovPH application available on Google Play and App Store. 'This app will be available on eGov starting tomorrow. So, puwede na silang pumunta ulit sa LTO at i-click nila ang LTO tracker. Ilagay nila 'yung kanilang either plate number or MV file number,' Dizon said. (This app will be available on eGov starting tomorrow. So, they can go back to the LTO and click on the LTO tracker. They can enter either their plate number or MV file number.) 'Malalaman na nila kung nasaan 'yung kanilang plaka,' he added. (They will know the status of their license plates.) Motorcycle owners may opt to have their license plates delivered through a courier, according to Dizon. They can also just pick up their license plates at their respective LTO district offices. This was announced following the completion of the over 5.4 million backlogs in LTO's license plate production for motorcycles. 'As of this year, it was cut down to 5.4 million. Officially, we are here to announce we have already produced 5.4 million motorcycle plates, which effectively eliminates the backlogs,' Dizon said. The highest backlogs on motorcycle plates was recorded in Luzon with around 2.4 million, followed by Metro Manila with 1.4 million, Mindanao with 992,000, and the Visayas with 672,000. Transportation Undersecretary for Road Transport and Non-Infrastructure Ramon Reyes said the distribution of the 5.4 million motorcycle plates will be completed by October. 'Ang target po natin is sometime in October siguro 100% na tayo. By October this year, yun pong 5.4 million na distribute na po 'yan nationwide,' he said. (Our target is that sometime in October, we will probably be at 100%. By October this year, that 5.4 million will be distributed nationwide.) —VAL, GMA Integrated News
