iPhone 9to5Mac

Introduced in 2007 by Steve Jobs, iPhone is Apple’s flagship iOS device and easily its most popular product around the world. Software wise, it runs iOS and includes a large collection of mobile apps through the App Store.

Since its introduction, Apple has released at least one new phone every single year. In recent years, that has typically been in the fall. iPhones are sold through multiple retail channels including Apple Stores, cellular stores, Best Buy, and other major electronic retailers. iPhones can be bought with a single up front payment, financed through the iPhone Upgrade Program, or financed through a cellular carrier.

Apple’s smartphone has become much more than just a phone since its debut. The iPhone can act as your primary camera, music player, GPS device, email client, mobile banking system, messaging device, movie player, and much more.

Apple announced plans to let iPhone users add a driver’s license or state ID to Wallet back in 2021. The rollout started slowly, but it has picked up significantly over the past year. Apple also now offers a second option that does not depend on your state at all.

Today, there are two distinct ways to carry an ID in Apple Wallet:

  • An eligible driver’s license or state ID issued by a participating state
  • A passport-verified Digital ID created from an unexpired U.S. passport

The two options coexist in Wallet, but they have different requirements and are not accepted everywhere. Here’s what each one does, where you can use it, and which states could be next.
