Taken from the readme of the app on github:

The current release provides only basic functionality, with several key features to be introduced in future versions, including:

App and device verification based on Google Play Integrity API and Apple App Attestation

Additional issuance methods beyond the currently implemented eID based method.

These planned features align with the requirements and methods described in the Age Verification Profile.

There is an issue opened to remove this as it’s basically telling us that to verify our age in the EU an American corporation has the last word, making it not only a privacy nightmare but a de-facto monopoly on the phone market that will leave out of the verification checks even the fairphone (european) with /e/os.

    DSGVO etc? Who cares… 🤢🤮

    edit: “Who cares” from the point of view of the EU, because the EU itself is once again ignoring the DSGVO with this solution.

      The Age Verification (AV) android app is part of the Age Verification Solution Toolbox and serves as a component that can be used by memberstates, if necessary, to develop a national solution and build upon the building blocks of the toolbox. […] This is an initial version of the software, developed solely for the purpose of demonstrating the business flow of the solution. It is not intended for production use, and does not yet include the full set of functional, security, or integration features required for a live deployment.
