The Election Commission of India (ECI) invites citizens to download the ECINet app and provide suggestions for improvement using the "Submit a Suggestion" tab between November 27, 2025, and December 27, 2025. The trial version was used during the Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 and recent bye-elections, enabling better voter services and quicker availability of polling percentage trends. The official launch of the updated, user-friendly platform is planned for January 2026. ECINet integrates approximately 40 election-related applications, including Voter Helpline App (VHA), cVIGIL, Saksham, Polling Trends, and Know Your Candidate (KYC) App, into a single interface. The app is available on both Google Play Store and Apple App Store. The development of the ECINet App began after its announcement on May 4, 2025, under the leadership of Chief Election Commissioner Shri Gyanesh Kumar, along with Election Commissioners Dr. Sukhbir Singh Sandhu and Dr. Vivek Joshi.
