Apple Wallet ID Feature Could Expand to Four More States
MacRumors said evidence in Apple’s code points to Apple Wallet ID support coming to four additional U.S. states. The report also noted North Carolina is preparing its own mobile ID rollout, with Wallet support to follow later.

Signal Summary
The MacRumors report suggests Apple is continuing to widen support for digital IDs in Wallet beyond the states already live today. It also connects the expansion to North Carolina’s separate mobile ID plan and a broader ecosystem of wallet apps.
Why It Matters
If the rollout grows, more iPhone and Apple Watch users could use digital IDs at supported airports, apps, and businesses without showing a physical card. That could make Apple Wallet’s identity features more useful, even if acceptance remains limited for now.
