The Cook Government
has unveiled a new 'user friendly' design of the ServiceWA app to provide Western
Australians with easier access to Government services and the latest
information on how to stay safe.
Innovation and the Digital
Economy Minister Stephen Dawson said the fresh new personalised look of the app
offers convenient access to key Government services that Western Australians
use every day, and added integrations which offer safety information and
convenience.
With the touch of a
button, ServiceWA app users can customise the app for quick and easy access to alerts
and warnings, ranging from bushfire and sharks through to fuel and weather
updates.
Users can access:
- Emergency WA's bushfire warning notifications: Opt
in to receive location-based notifications on bushfire warnings;
- FishCatchWA: Track and analyse recreational
fishing demersal catches in real-time;
- FuelWatch: Find the best fuel prices across WA
through an interactive map;
- SharkSmart: Stay informed about the latest
reported sightings and beach safety advice;
- Unclaimed Money: Find money the WA Government or
organisations owe you; and
- Weather Stations: Access timely, detailed and
local weather data across the State.
In response to
community feedback, users can now access the ServiceWA app without needing to
log in with their Digital Identity, like myGovID.
More than 1.4 million users have downloaded the ServiceWA app, which plays a
vital role in achieving the Cook Government's vision to deliver convenient,
smart and secure services for all Western Australians.There is more information available via this link: ServiceWA
