"To create a Digital ID, tap the "plus" button at the top right corner of the Wallet app, and then select Digital ID. From there, Apple will ask you to scan the photo page of your physical passport, as well as the chip embedded on the back of it "to ensure the data's authenticity." You'll then have to take a selfie for verification, as well as complete facial and head movements to confirm that it's really you."
"You can present your Digital ID by double-clicking your iPhone's side or Home button to open Apple Wallet, choosing your Digital ID, and then holding your phone or Apple Watch near an identity reader. Apple says the feature is encrypted, meaning Apple can't see when you display your ID, or the data you presented. You also won't need "to unlock, show, or hand over" your device to present your ID - something you shouldn't do with digital driver's licenses, either."
Apple is introducing Digital IDs that let US passport holders create and store an ID in Apple Wallet for TSA domestic checkpoints at more than 250 airports. Users can present the Digital ID in lieu of a REAL ID using an iPhone or Apple Watch, but the Digital ID is not a substitute for a physical passport and cannot be used for international travel or border crossings. The setup requires scanning the passport photo page and chip, taking a selfie, and performing facial and head movements for verification. The feature uses encryption so Apple cannot see when or what identity data is presented.
