Google for India 2022: Google brings Digilocker to Android, Google Pay gets Transaction Search
Google today hosted Google for India 2022 event in India today. At the eighth edition of the event, Google announced major updates for its Files app. The company today announced that it is bringing documents securely verified by Indian government’s Digilocker app to Android smartphones. The company is using its Files app for the same.
The company today announced a collaboration with the National eGovernance Division (NeGD) to enable people with easy access to their authentic digital documents directly from the Files by Google app on Android. At the event, Google said that the documents stored in Files by Google app on Android will be in an isolated environment on the device and that they can be accessed only using a unique lock-screen authentication from Digilocker.
For this, the company is using an advanced AI model, which identifies and organises important files on users’ Android smartphones safely.

Google also shared what it is doing to make transactions on Google Pay safer. The company said that its safety engine maps an aggregate fraud pattern and then flashes a warning to users in their preferred language if it detects any suspicious activity. “The ‘Pay’ button activates in a couple of seconds, giving users a momen to think before paying an unknown person,” the company added.
