MacRumors has discovered signs of an Oklahoma ID in Apple’s backend, indicating that Driver’s licenses and IDs may soon be available in Apple Wallet for iPhone and Apple Watch users living in the Sooner State.
The Oklahoma House in March 2026 passed a bill allowing Service Oklahoma to issue mobile or digital versions of state identification cards, driver’s licenses or permits. The bill was crafted with input from Apple, indicating the new program may go smoothly.
The digital documents are not intended to be used as a replacement for physical licenses and state IDs, so OK residents will need to always have the latter on hand.
Once available, Oklahoma residents can add their driver’s license or state ID to the Apple Wallet app by opening it, tapping on the “+” button, selecting “Driver’s License and ID Cards” and following the onscreen instructions. The feature requires an iPhone 8 or later running iOS 16.5 or later, or an Apple Watch Series 4 or later running watchOS 9.5 or later.
Apple added support for digital IDs back in 2022, but since the feature requires states to implement support, the rollout has been rather slow. In 2021, Apple said that it was in “discussions with many more states” and was optimistic that Wallet IDs would be available nationwide in the future.
Other states planning to add support for driver’s licenses in Apple Wallet include Connecticut, Kentucky, Mississippi, Utah, and Virginia.
