To make the Examination and Recruitment related information more accessible, the Union Public Service Commission has launched the UPSC app for aspirants. It is exclusively available on Android's Google Play Store with the title, “UPSC - Official App”, the government agency announced. The app will allow candidates to check the exam-related information or search for jobs through the mobile app. However, UPSC has said that the application will not be able to fill out the application forms. It suggests that in order to fill the forms, you will ultimately have to access the website or other means.
“The App is used to view the various information related to the Union Public Service Commission's Website which has been mandated the responsibilities of making recruitment by conduct of competitive examinations as well as selection through interviews,” the app information on Google Play Store reads. It is big news for UPSC aspirants, as it will allow them to have official and authentic information related to exams and jobs, eliminating the need to access several other websites. This will also help aspirants to stay away from misinformation. However, candidates who are looking forward to applying for the UPSC exam are advised to keep an eye on the official application about exam schedules.
