It’s a very useful option to prove your identity or age at airports or TSA checkpoints without getting your physical ID out.
Today Apple officially announced that the feature is expanding to include one more state — Arkansas.
You can now add your Driver’s License and ID to Apple Wallet in Arkansas

The feature is rolling out gradually and might not have gotten to all residents, but chances are you’re getting it sooner rather than later.
Arkansas is the 14th state to get the feature, and you can check if the update has reached you by opening the Wallet app on the iPhone and tapping on the plus sign in the top-right corner.
When you then tap on the plus icon and select Driver’s License and ID Cards, you should see Arkansas on the list. Follow the instructions on screen to complete the process.

Digital IDs and Driver Licenses don’t replace your physical documents
It’s worth noting that this feature is not meant to replace your physical Driver License or Passport. It only offers the convenience of keeping these important documents safely in your pockets or bag during security checks.
You still need to have the physical copies on you and present them if asked by the relevant authorities.
