| 0:00.0 | Welcome to 9 to 5 Mac Daily for Wednesday, November 19, 2025. |
| 0:07.3 | I'm your host, Chance Miller. |
| 0:09.3 | We're supported this week by card pointers. |
| 0:12.3 | Leading off today, Apple Wallet support for digital driver's licenses and state IDs continues to expand. |
| 0:18.4 | Now, the state of Illinois has officially announced that starting today, |
| 0:22.3 | iPhone users will be able to add their license to the Apple Wallet app on their iPhone for digital |
| 0:27.6 | access. With the addition of Illinois, support for this feature is available in 13 states along with |
| 0:33.9 | Puerto Rico. You'll need to take a picture of your license and complete a face ID |

| 0:43.7 | your license in Apple wallet, you can use it in person, online, and in apps at select businesses. |
| 0:49.1 | This includes TSA checkpoints at over 250 airports in the U.S., including O'Hare and Midway in Chicago. |

| 1:13.9 | It can be used at TSA checkpoints at over 250 airports in the U.S. Mobile driver's licenses or |
| 1:21.7 | state IDs are available in those select states as well as Japan. Those digital driver's licenses can be used at the same TSA checkpoints, but they can also be used at additional businesses and organizations. |
| 1:35.3 | Right now, the digital ID feature is only supported at TSA checkpoints, but Apple says that additional acceptance use cases will arrive in the future. So for now, |
| 1:45.7 | the mobile driver's license feature in Apple Wallet is the most powerful and the most versatile, |
| 1:50.6 | but the two platforms will likely converge at some point in the future. Next up today, Apple has |
| 1:55.7 | updated its App Store review guidelines with multiple new rules, including one targeting misleading use of |
| 2:02.4 | other apps branding. From time to time, Apple updates its app review guidelines to respond to changes |
| 2:08.3 | in the market, whether they're good or bad. The biggest change in the total of nine changes made |
