ID-Reader allows for requesting official State digital ID and Driver's license information that is held within the Apple Wallet. Great for Night Clubs and other venues that need to check for age at the door. Simply start the app and wave your phone over the guest's phone and if they have a Digital ID in their Apple wallet, they will be prompted to allow verification of age. Currently California, Hawaii, Ohio, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, and Maryland support digital IDs in the Apple Wallet, 21 other states in active development. An optional in-app purchase gives the ability to scan U.S. Passport NFC chips for verification. Terms of use can be found here: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Emerginet at none against ID's 2. Emerginet also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 13 months) and iOS requirement (15.6 vs 18.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
