The Co-WIN app was designed by the Centre to ensure a smooth vaccination drive and to see that people get the second dose on time.

The app will generate a QR-based certificate after the first dosage and the final certificate will be issued after the second dosage. Beneficiaries are identified with the help of Aadhaar details as well. The app, as of now, is accessible only to beneficiaries.
