mObywatel Requires Version 4.93.1 by 16 November: Update Now

Poland's mObywatel app needs version 4.93.1 by 16 November. Older builds may limit access to digital documents and public services, so users should update.

Users of mObywatel, Poland's government mobile app, should make sure they run version 4.93.1 before 16 November. After that date, older builds may make it harder to reach digital documents and online public services, and the app could stop working properly.

What this means for users

The warning mainly affects people who do not update their mobile apps regularly, for example those who have automatic updates switched off. For them, the deadline is the point at which a routine habit can turn into a practical problem: a digital ID or other document that is not available when it is needed.

Checking takes about half a minute. The version number is shown in the app's details and in the app store listing on the phone, and a pending update is offered there as well. Anyone whose version is older than 4.93.1 should install the newest release before the deadline.

Why it matters

mObywatel is used as a pocket-sized way to carry official documents and to handle matters with the administration. When the app is unusable, so is everything stored in it. Updating ahead of the cut-off avoids being caught out at an inconvenient moment, such as a check or an errand at an office.

The deadline is 16 November, only a few days away, so the update is best done now rather than left to the last day.
