Unable to scan ID

I get to the part where I’m supposed to scan my ID and it only says Front of ID. I tried moving to different surfaces with different lighting, etc. but with no luck at all. So it’s not usable by me at all. I have an iPhones 17e.

To many steps to use regularly

Please add support for Apple wallet!

Also the app takes to many taps right now. Open, authenticate, show QR code, scan, confirm, wait. It’s easier to use a physical ID.

FAQ

What is New York Mobile ID?

New York Mobile ID is an official state-issued digital version of your New York State driver license or ID card. It allows you to securely store and present your identity information on your smartphone for accepted uses, offering a private and contactless verification method.

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?

The app employs robust security measures to protect your identity. Access to your Mobile ID is secured by your device's Face ID, Touch ID, or a six-digit PIN, ensuring that only you can unlock and present your digital identification.
