First, you need to either download the DigiLocker app from Google Play Store (for Android users) or the Apple App Store (for iOS users) or simply go to the DigiLocker official portal https://www.digilocker.gov.in/dashboard
Sign up yourself by submitting your phone number, name, date of birth, Aadhaar card details, email id and other required details. Authenticate your mobile number by submitting the 6-digit OTP.
