Apple is making waves with its latest announcement at WWDC25, introducing a groundbreaking feature to the Wallet app that promises to transform digital ID usage across the United States: passport integration!
Since the introduction of Drivers Licenses and IDs in Apple Wallet back in iOS 15, the feature has only been made available in a limited number of states—currently, just 9 states and Puerto Rico can access it. While Apple plans to expand this by adding three more states soon, that still leaves a huge gap as nearly 38 states remain untouched.
With the upcoming addition of passport support, the tech giant aims to bridge this significant gap in digital ID adoption.
This move could potentially streamline identification processes, making traveling and identification easier for millions of users. Imagine checking in for flights or verifying your identity without having to dig through your wallet—just a quick tap on your phone!
As this feature rolls out with iOS 26, it’s clear that Apple is positioning itself as a leader in digital identity solutions. Stay tuned for updates and get ready to say goodbye to carrying physical passports!
