Support for IDs in Apple Wallet expands to its fifth state

One of the most highly anticipated features announced at WWDC in 2021 was support for storing IDs in the Apple Wallet application. However, the rollout of this feature has been incredibly slow.

But starting today, the IDs in Wallet feature is now available in its fifth state: Ohio.

Apple updated its “IDs in Wallet” website to acknowledge the addition of Ohio. With this, the feature is now available in the following states:

• Ohio
• Maryland
• Arizona
• Georiga
• Colorado

Apple has said that the following states are committed to supporting its implementation of digital IDs in Wallet:

• Connecticut
• Hawaii
• Iowa
• Kentucky
• Mississippi
• Oklahoma
• Utah

Where can you actually use IDs stored in Apple Wallet? Here’s what Apple says:

With your ID in Wallet, there’s no need to reach for your physical ID. Simply add it to the Wallet app and use it to show proof of age or identity at select businesses and venues. Or, travel with it at select TSA checkpoints. Presenting your ID just got much easier.

Apple says that ID cards in Wallet are currently available for use at select TSA checkpoints within Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport (BWI), Denver International Airport (DEN), Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport (ATL), Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX), and Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport (DCA).

Thanks, Matt!
