Civil aviation ministry asks users to update DigiYatra app to fix cache

The civil aviation ministry on Friday asked users to update the DigiYatra app to address app cache issues.

The ministry’s clarifications came a day after fintech firm BharatPe’s co-founder Ashneer Grover tweeted that DigiYatra “won’t work after new update”.

In a series of tweets, the ministry said the shared boarding pass QR code is available on the home screen of the app, so that passengers can easily scan it at the airport entry gate. Passengers can also go to the device folder, search and open the airline issued boarding pass PDF.

“Android users are requested to update to version 2.0.1 which takes care of the app cache issues. Apple iOS App users, are also requested update to version 2.0.2 which is now available on the App Store.
