How do I use my Mobile ID?

1. “Can I see some ID?”

Pull up your ID on your phone. Show the screen with your driver license or ID on it (“IDs”), or the home (“Me”) screen.

If needed, you can authenticate your Mobile ID by selecting “Certify”. This will display a rotating emblem that follows your finger while moving across the screen.

2. “Can I scan your ID?”

  1. Display the barcode from the back of your ID as it’s shown under “IDs”.

    -OR-

  2. Go to the “Me” screen and tap “Generate Privacy Code” to display a bar code only view.

3. “Can I scan your Mobile ID QR code?”

  1. Open the Mobile ID app.
  2. Go to the “Me”/home screen.
  3. Tap the “Share” icon next to “Generate privacy code”.
  4. Present the QR code for scanning to initiate the connection with the verifying device.
  5. Accept (or Decline) the request to share information under “IDs”.

PRIVACY VIEWS

When you want to order a drink at a restaurant, the server doesn’t need to know your birth date, weight, eye color, or address – they only need to know you’re legal.

Privacy views allow you to share only relevant information.

Access privacy views by tapping on the arrow next to “Full information” at the top of the home screen.


Select a privacy view, e.g. Prove my age.

If you tap on Generate privacy code, the barcode that shows up contains only the information from the privacy view, in this case that you’re 21+.
