Digital driver’s licenses are gaining momentum across the United States, building on a growing trend of mobile identity adoption that has accelerated since Google Wallet’s launch of digital driver’s license functionality in multiple states. Idaho’s State House of Representatives has now approved legislation to enable electronic driver’s licenses, with potential implementation by March 2025 pending Senate approval. Under Idaho’s proposed system, residents would maintain their physical licenses while gaining the option to store digital versions in mobile wallet apps on both iOS and Android devices. “The security advantages of mobile licenses include personal data protection within a secure vault system,” said Representative Stephanie Mickelsen. The approach mirrors successful implementations in other states where end-to-end encryption and robust authentication protocols have become standard features.
