FROM ABC NEWS:
Apple and Android phones both allow users to create a digital ID on their device that serves as a Real ID and can be used at more than 250 TSA checkpoints in the U.S.
To create an Apple Digital ID, users must add their passport information to their Apple Wallet app. Once authenticated, it’s stored and ready to use at the airport.
Google Wallet also requires passport information to create an ID Pass, which like Apple’s Digital ID can be used as a Real ID. Detailed instructions on how to add an ID Pass can be found here.
The digital ID cannot be used for international travel.
The Transportation Security Administration recommends that travelers carry a physical and acceptable form of ID with them as a backup.
