The West Virginia mID app will allow residents to securely store and manage their identification credentials on their smartphones. Users can verify their identity at TSA PreCheck checkpoints at participating airports across the country, streamlining travel experiences. This digital solution is designed to simplify interactions with government agencies, businesses and other service providers, offering a modern secure form of identification.
Additionally, West Virginia residents can expect the mID to expand to OEM wallets in the near future.
