However, it seemed that this was going to be something exclusive to the American country, since they do not even have it implemented in the entire territory, so the fact that it reached the rest of the continents was going to be a matter of a long time, although it has not been like that, and a country in Europe already has it.
DNI in iPhone Wallet
Technology advances more every year, and so does the convenience of carrying certain things on our phones. In this case, many countries have partnered with Apple to implement their ID and driving licenses in the native iPhone app, making it easier for everyone to carry it if the authorities require it, however, although it should be a quick process, since it benefits everyone, it does not seem to be that quick, and everything progresses very slowly, Although the incorporation of a country very close to Spain gives us hope.
It has been the turn of United Kingdomwho announced that they will have their own system so that, legally, you can show your iPhone, and you do not need to carry the documents in physical format. It is not clear if it will integrate directly with Apple Wallet, although everything indicates that it could be compatible, at least in the long run. What is clear is that it is a much more comfortable system and that will not only allow you to carry these two documents, but also any other issued by your government, such as a medical certificate, as already happened with Covid.
In Spain there is no trace of news in this regard, although we hope that this is not the only country that begins its journey in new technologies and that others, in Europe, also develop or accept it, since that will put more pressure on its neighbors to that they implement something similar, and in the middle of 2025, it is ridiculous that we cannot have it.
The DGT launched its app in Spain years ago, where we can carry our cards, however, it is quite simple and does not integrate directly with Wallet, so you have to log in to it, and although the authorities do accept it, It is not something that all administrations consider valid, especially when you need your DNI.
For now we have to wait, but it seems that, along with the United States or Puerto Rico, the United Kingdom is also joining this, so we have faith that it will not only be something for the American continent, and that it will begin to reach Spain and neighboring countries. , as well as Latin America and other places.
And you, what do you think about this? Do you think it is something essential, or do you prefer the physical format and continue carrying everything in your wallet? Leave us a comment with your opinion and if you will use it if they implement it.
