Not sure if true, but someone raised an issue when this was first announced. That you can no longer refuse to unlock your phone when stopped, since you’ll have to unlock it to show your digital driver’s license.

    As of now they’re still considering this a test, so people have to still carry and have available their physical ID in any situation.

    But, off the top of my head, say you’re going through security and already have your plane ticket on your phone, that is all you will need to have out.

    If you’re buying some booze at the circle K and already planning to pay with your phone, again no need to get out your wallet.

    I dunno if the ends justify the means, but use-case is kinda fun I guess

      Boarding a plane by scanning a QR code off my watch stills feels pretty cool even though you’ve been able to do it for years now.
