Question

To ask the Scottish Government, in light of the launch of the GOV.UK app, whether it has plans to develop a Scottish Government mobile app.


Answer

The development of a Scottish Government Mobile App is a Digital Public Servies commitment within the Government's Public Service Reform Strategy published in June 2025.

The proposed App will be a gateway to personalised public services. The first use case is likely to be proof of age, scheduled to be available this financial year. The Digital Directorate will be leading on this work.
