Apple has been months behind a new feature it announced for iOS 15 and that it is giving you more problems than initially anticipated. It is being able to include our DNI and driver's license in Wallet, and that it be valid before the authorities that request it.
It seems to be according to the developers that it has finally been implemented in the beta of iOS 15.4. But one thing is that you can insert them into the Wallet application of the iPhone, and another very different thing that the public administration of your country is prepared for it. At the moment, some states in North America are.
When you see your neighbor's beards cut, put yours to soak. We can apply this saying to this news. The driver's license and identity card in Wallet is already going to be a reality in the US So in a while, when the public administration of our country adapts, we will also be able to enjoy this function. By the time that happens, our iPhones will be ready.
And they will be ready as soon as we update them to the future version of iOS 15.4. It is currently in beta, and the developers who are testing it say that they can now incorporate their driving and identity licenses into the Wallet app.
But another thing is that said virtual card is valid before an official body that requires it to identify you. To do this, the digital systems of each administration must be adapted to said digital card.
Some North American states like Arizona y Georgia they already are. And many others are finalizing their computer systems to allow personal recognition through the Smartphone Wallet. It is only a matter of time, before it spreads to the rest of the countries.
In Spain, we have miDGT
For now, here in Spain we can take our driving license on the iPhone with the official application of the General direction of traffic, myDGT. the truth is that it works very well, and it provides you with the different data about you and your vehicle that appear on the DGT server, such as the points you have on your card, or the expiration date of the vehicle's ITV.
