As announced last month<\/a>, up to 1.5 million pilot participants can add the documents to Apple Wallet by scanning their driver\u2019s license or state ID card using their iPhone and then providing a scan of their face using a \u201cseries of facial and head movements\u201d as an added security measure. The scans will need to be verified by the state before the documents are made available in Wallet.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, as it\u2019s still only authorized for limited usage, the state DMV advises users to continue carrying their physical IDs, too.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Starting today, the digital IDs can be used at \u201cselect TSA checkpoints\u201d at San Francisco International, Los Angeles International, and San Jose Mineta International airports without users having to hand over physical copies of their licenses, IDs, or their iPhones. They can also be presented to participating businesses and venues as proof of identity and age.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

According to Apple, IDs stored in Apple Wallet are encrypted (including the history of when it\u2019s been presented) on a device, and that data is not accessible by Apple or the state issuing the ID. The information can not be accessed until authorized using Face ID or Touch ID, and displaying it doesn\u2019t require the device to be fully unlocked, Apple says.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

California joins six other states that already support Apple Wallet IDs, including Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Maryland, Hawaii, and Ohio. Montana, New Mexico, and West Virginia will eventually join them.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
