Australia does this too. Mygov even have the balls to call it a wallet.
It’s so annoying lol. I see absolutely no reason why I couldn’t have my Medicare card in the wallet app
They do it France too and pretend it’s more secure that everything that has been done before, even software that only store encrypted data locally.
Task failed successfully.
Delaware has the same setup, unfortunately the law still requires you to present a physical copy of your license when requested. So, the app is kind of pointless…
That’s a shame! Still, very cool! What can you do with it besides airports? Do any stores actually accept it?
In Colorado I’ve purchased age restricted items using the Colorado digital ID plenty of times.
Yep. I actually stopped carrying around my ID because the new RealID cards are horrifically brittle and just destroy themselves in my wallet, but the digital ID is required to be accepted statewide anyway, so I only need the card when I go out of state.
Why do companies(states) insist on releasing their obviously inferior takes on things that are already on our phones and work well.
This will probably go the way of Apple Pay. Many companies insisting on using their version of mobile pay until they eventually cave because they finally realized how shit it is
I just looked up the California wallet app for this and it has such low ratings.
So that you’ll hand over your phone unlocked, so they can plug it into GrayKey real quick. Wallet support would leave your phone locked.
