Apple is expanding its digital ID feature in Apple Wallet to four additional states, with North Carolina being the first to confirm its participation. Starting in December, North Carolina residents will be able to use a mobile ID through the NC Wallet app, with support for Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, and Samsung Wallet expected early next year. This digital identification will be accepted at TSA checkpoints in over 250 airports and by law enforcement, though physical IDs are still recommended as a backup. Reports also suggest Oklahoma, Utah, and Virginia may soon support digital IDs in Apple Wallet, though no timeline has been provided. AI
