Request an appointment for Renewing your DNI or other document generally takes timeso with this application you can configure the alert to notify the user from a notification on their mobile phone or an email a few months in advance.
This application available on Android and iOS received several important new features last year and now, since last Friday, it also offers the possibility of consulting the history of the municipalities of residencethe status of high-level athlete and the possibility of downloading the registration certificate with the European annex in the desired language.
It was launched in Europe by the Ministry of Economy and Digital Transformation in beta version in September 2022, so that In just under a year and a half of life, it will be one of the essential applications for mobile installation; especially when it is now very simple to request the digital certificate from home in order to access all the data provided by Public Administrations. They are all these:

The new update arrived a few days ago It joins many others from last year which allow you to consult your medical history, download your professional life or even your birth certificate. An incredible value app that now offers the ability to fully configure alerts to renew your ID card, driving license or even passport; a different experience from the option available in the application to add dates to the mobile or tablet calendar to renew previous documents or appointments.
How to configure alerts in Citizen Folder
To take advantage of the My Citizen Folder application, you must have installed the digital certificate, PIN code, permanent key or electronic DNI. The most common and easiest to use is the digital certificate. What —in addition to being able to be used in other applications such as the essential My DGT— It can be requested simply from home using your mobile phone.
Once the Digital Certificate is installed on the mobile, you just need to go through the downloading My citizen file from the Google Play Store on Android or the App Store for iPhone. Better yet, you can configure your mobile’s biometric access to use your fingerprint or face (in the case of iPhone) to easily access the app.
Now the steps to configure the new alert options and thus receive the DNI renewal notice up to three months before or one month before passing the ITV on the vehicle:
- In the app, click at the bottom on the Settings button
- On the next screen, click Configuring reviews.
- Here there are two very different sections: general and specific configuration.
- We settle on the general configuration and it is enabled to receive push notifications (notifications that arrive on the mobile) and to receive email notifications.
- For push notifications option you need to click on the yellow window that appears after activation so that on the next screen you click on notifications and allow notifications from My Citizen Folder app.
- If this option is not configured, even if push notifications are active, no notifications will be received on the mobile.
- Finally, if email notification is enabled, you must add an email from the Email Address option.
There The next option to configure are the two warnings in order to receive one 90 days before the date (in case of DNI renewal to make an appointment) and 30 days before for reminder. Here it will depend on the document that needs to be renewed or if the car needs to pass its technical inspection. But with these two configurations you are guaranteed to receive two very important alerts. This is done like this:
- Click Receive First Notice and configure it with the 90 day option.
- Click the second to configure 30 days.
- The configuration allows you to customize it as you wish for the renewal of a document or any other bureaucratic operation that you need to carry out with public administrations in Europe.
Finally, it remains the specific configuration for each type of renewal, ITV or previous appointments. In other words, what is configured is whether to receive a push notification (the notification on the mobile phone) and an email notification, as well as when you want to receive the first notification and then the second. Depending on the importance of each review, both or just one may be added. We do it like this:
- Click on one of the options DNI, electronic DNI, ITV, Passport, Driving license or prior appointments.
- It is enabled to receive push notifications, by email or both.
- It is configured when receiving the first notice, then the second (explained above).
And what was said, This configuration will depend on the need to renew the DNI, to pass the ITV or a prior appointment. The difference between the two is that the first will be better to have an alert 90 days before to make an appointment and take the ITV, you can configure to receive the alert 30 days before and thus go through an ITV to reserve a go and have the car inspected. .
My Citizen Folder with the inclusion of alerts by notifications or email puts the icing on the cake of an entire experience that has made this application one of the best that can be installed on a mobile phone.
