No, The 'Modi Keynote' App Is Not Meant For Currency Authentication

The augmented reality app is meant "just for fun."

 

After demonetising the existing Rs 500 and Rs 1000 notes, the Indian government introduced Rs 2000 bills. The tacky purple notes have been much sought-after due to scarcity of currency. With most people seeing these notes for the first time, there's hardly a way to tell it apart from the possible fake currency. Amidst the uncertainty, a new augmented reality app has popped up. The Android app can scan a Rs 2000 note and overlay Modi's "inspiring" speech on a bill. While there's nothing wrong with this Android app, many people have been falsely circulating it as a way to authenticate Rs 2000 currency bill. However, that's not the case.



For starters, the app or developer is in no way affiliated with the Indian government. Moreover, the Bangalore-based developer has clearly mentioned in the Play Store that, "People of India support our honorable Prime minister Modi Ji on the demonetization drive. Note: This app is just for fun."  So, if you cherish seeing our Prime Minister Narendra Modi eclipse Gandhi on the currency, download the app by all means. Just don't use it to check whether the notes are genuine.
