Bugfixes and performance improvements.

User reviews

Good start

With more and more states giving the option to include state drivers licenses, and even US passport in the Apple wallet, it would be so much more preferred and easy to have everything all in one place. Please consider allowing New York to add drivers license to Apple wallet

Enrollment is a joke

The step where it is suppose to take a picture of your face keeps failing. It shouldn’t be this difficult. I’ve used biometric confirmation in other apps without an issue. This is an identity app and the dev team have one job…….i’ve deleted the app!

Just Use the Apple ID feature

Why aren’t you just using Apple’s built-in ID feature??? It’s so much easier. This app is pointless. Apple already built the interface. This app is clunky and unnecessary

Unstable and unreliable

For the love of Mamdani, just integrate into Apple Wallet.

How do I set up New York Mobile ID?

Setting up the app involves five simple steps: downloading and granting permissions, verifying your phone number, scanning your physical driver license or ID, capturing a selfie, and setting up app security with a PIN or biometric authentication.

Is New York Mobile ID free to use?

Yes, the New York Mobile ID app is free to download and use. There are no in-app purchases or subscription fees associated with this official state-issued digital identification.

Can I use New York Mobile ID instead of my physical ID?

New York Mobile ID serves as a companion to your physical ID. While it can be used anywhere a physical ID is accepted and verified, not all entities are equipped to verify a mobile ID. Therefore, you should continue to carry your physical ID.

What kind of security features does the app have?
