myGovID app change: Here’s everything you need to know about name and look revamp

The Australian Government app myGovID will soon change its name to myID. The myGov app allows users to access many government services, including Centrelink, ATO and Medicare, in one place. The new look and name change “aims to reduce the ongoing confusion between the myGovID app and myGov” and will come into effect in mid-November.

The Government has warned Australians to be very vigilant during this time to avoid getting scammed. Scammers can pose as officials from myGovID or make fake websites to look like myGovID. It is important to only download the app from official app stores.
