Apple Wallet driver’s license support just launched in a new state
Apple Wallet driver’s license support has expanded to its 15th state. Starting today, people in Virginia can add their driver’s license to the Wallet app for digital access on iPhone and Apple Watch.
Apple's Wallet app has added driver's license support in Virginia, its 15th state to offer this feature. This digital ID functionality allows iPhone and Apple Watch users to store their driver's license for convenient access. Apple began expanding the capability to new states in 2021, following its announcement at WWDC. Virginia and Apple officially launched the feature today, according to MacRumors.
To add a driver's license, open the Wallet app on iPhone, tap the plus icon, scan the front and back, and verify identity. Once added, the license can be used at TSA checkpoints at over 250 airports and certain businesses across the U.S. Several other states, such as Kentucky, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Utah, Connecticut, and Mississippi, are developing support for Apple Wallet licenses.
For residents of states without support, Apple provided a Digital ID feature last year using a US passport, available regardless of location.
