Mobile Driver's Licenses

Mobile driver's licenses are government-issued digital credentials held in an app on the user's phone. Most mobile driver's licenses authenticate the user to a high level of assurance with very low friction, while less-sophisticated solutions only show a static QR code or an on-screen image of the license.
