If you drive, one of the apps you should have installed on your mobile is the official DGT app, called miDGT; in fact, we probably don’t even need to tell you, because it’s one of the most downloaded government apps on the Play Store and App Store, with 8.3 million downloads.

The great attraction of the miDGT is the possibility of carrying your driving license on your mobile, in a version which, although digital, is perfectly legal and allows you to say goodbye to the physical license; It serves as both an ID and driver’s license in case an officer asks us for it.
DGT app is now better
But that’s not the only advantage of the DGT app; Over time, it acquired more functions, such as the possibility of initiating administrative procedures without having to go to the DGT office in person. For example, the organization itself boasts that users have updated their details 2 million times and generated tens of thousands of reports. And even if no one likes pay traffic feesthis application also allows us to do it from the mobile, and it is successful.
In addition, this 2022 the application has been updated with functions such as the request for a duplicate of the physical documentation of our vehicle; and for procedures that still need to be presented in person, we can now request an appointment. One feature that new drivers will appreciate is the ability to view driving test result.
The official application of the DGT, miDGT
This week, miDGT has been updated with some important new features, which aim to make our lives a little easier by providing direct access to more procedures. Concretely, we can now request temporary leave, something that we are very interested in for vehicles in our name that are not going to be used for a while; For less than 9 dollars, we can request this cancellation for one year, an extendable period.
The other novelty allows us find the ITV from our mobile thanks to geolocation; We can also find other points of interest such as driver recognition centers, driving schools or vehicle processing centers.
The DGT application still does not allow to carry out all the procedures, such as the return of fines which always requires in-person assistance; although others, such as the presentation of claims, are already available at the DGT electronic office, so we can expect them to arrive in the application sooner or later.
