Following news appeared in DNA ( 31 May 2018 ) :

BHIM app to add voice recognition feature

http://www.dnaindia.com/business/report-bhim-app-to-add-voice-recognition-feature-2620488

Extract :

Currently, users need to enter a UPI PIN created by them for enabling transactions. The new feature of voice recognition will be available in addition to PIN option, giving users another secure way of managing the application, a senior government official told DNA Money.

This will also improve ease of using the digital payment app as it will be convenient for many to use their voice as the password.

Dear Shri Hota :

Just read your views in Eco Times (13 June / Start Ups and the Sarkar ), where you say,

“ We are very happy with Start Ups

Post BHIM we have decided as a policy to work with Start Ups in developing new products and applications to enhance the payments eco-system “

Could the next improvement in BHIM , be a “ Voice Activated “ version ( BHIM V 4.0 ) , as described in :

BHIM , the Unstoppable  [  14  April  2017  ]

This breakthrough will enable millions of illiterate / rural Indians to start using BHIM

Earlier , I have penned my suggestions in :

Let  BHIM  get  MAD      [  21  May  2017  ]

A  Beerud  named  BHIM  ?  [  17  April  2017  ]

With Regards,
