Apple Wallet IDs Expand: iPhone Driver's Licenses Coming to Seven More States

Apple says seven more U.S. states will offer iPhone Wallet IDs for driver’s licenses, joining 13 states and Puerto Rico that already support the feature. Setup is in Wallet under Add → Driver’s License/ID, with current supported states listed (Arizona, Maryland, Colorado, Georgia, Ohio, Hawaii, California, Iowa, New Mexico, Montana, North Dakota, West Virginia, Illinois) plus Puerto Rico; seven future states—Connecticut, Kentucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Utah, Arkansas, Virginia—have signed on but without timelines. Wallet IDs are accepted at TSA checkpoints in over 250 airports, though they aren’t used by law enforcement and a physical ID remains advisable. A Digital Passport option allows presenting a digital passport-based ID at participating TSA checkpoints for domestic travel only, not international travel. The feature requires iOS 26.1 / watchOS 26.1 or later.
