    The badge is to help people identify official apps.

    I think it’s not about that development but whom the data is being sent to, the state or some third party that provides same services.

    Like a National Emergency Broadcast app or app for vehicle and driver’s license registration service, that need sensitive info like your Govt ID and other details.
