Ministry of Digital Economy and Entrepreneurship, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.

In a statement Sunday, the ministry said that the
application is available for download for smart phones and other smart gadgets
running iOS and Android, adding that current users can update instead of a
clean reinstall.
It indicated that the new version sports a slew of
news features designed for an optimal user journey, adding that the application
serves as all-in-one government service hub accessible anywhere, anytime.
A key component of Sanad is the user’s digital ID
which allows real-time access to personal documents and records, including
personal ID, birth certificate, driver license, academic certificates, as well
as the coronavirus vaccination certificate. Also, users can pay their bills and
other service fees using the app.
However, the activation of the digital ID requires a
one-time visit to any Sanad station located in public and private institutions
across the Kingdom. Non-Jordanians can also sign in to Sanad in a “guest mode”
to access some government services.
The ministry said it will continue to collect feedback
before rolling out more than 400 services to Sanad throughout 2022, in addition
to the e-signature feature. According to the ministry, the application has been
downloaded about 2.5 million times since its launch in August 2021.
