Hawaii Drivers Licenses Go Digital With iPhone Wallet - Moderator 2 - 08-30-2024

If you have an iPhone, you can now add your Hawaii Drivers License to Wallet:

Hawaiʻi residents can now add their REAL ID-compliant cards to an iPhone or Apple Watch for use with certain apps, at select TSA checkpoints, and at participating stores. 

To add your state ID to your iPhone, open the Apple Wallet app and tap the "+" button at the top of the screen. Select "Driver's license or state ID" and verify your identity. Verification can take up to four weeks.

"Verification can take up to four weeks."

Mine took about 4 minutes.  YMMV.

The DOT recommends residents continue to carry their physical identification cards in case they must fulfill the lawful order of a police officer.

If I have to carry my "physical identification cards" anyway, there's not much value in having a "digital" version in my phone.

If your wallet ever gets lost or stolen it will save you a lot of time at a TSA checkpoint... once all the TSA checkpoints are equipped to accept digital IDs.
