Features & Capabilities

Kentucky Mobile ID is a private, secure, contactless way to verify your identity on your phone, usable anywhere an ID is accepted. It uses biometric or PIN protection so only your Face ID, Touch ID, or a six-digit PIN can unlock and reveal your Mobile ID.

Getting started is simple: download the app, verify your phone number, scan the front and back of your driver license or ID card, capture a selfie, and enable app security. Note that Kentucky Mobile ID is a state-issued ID that serves as a companion to your physical ID; not all entities can verify it, so you should continue carrying your physical ID.

User Reviews

User feedback is mixed. Some report easy registration and successful ID capture, with a path toward Apple Wallet. However, many reviews highlight serious usability problems: blur/focus errors on front and back captures, auto-capture with no manual control, repeated scanning failures requiring restarts, and a clunky UX from lens limitations. Several call the app not ready for prime time and note inconsistent performance across devices. A few users prefer sticking with the physical ID until significant improvements are made.
Pros
  • Some users report easy registration and successful initial ID capture on the first try.
  • Described as an official state ID app with potential Apple Wallet integration.
  • Selfie verification can work after a few attempts and is similar to Face ID.
  • A subset of reviews say the app looks fine and works fairly well, with quick transitions.
Cons
  • Blur/focus issues prevent capturing the ID (front and back) with frequent 'blur detected' messages.
  • Repeated scanning failures and restarts; many users cannot complete enrollment.
  • Auto-capture with no manual control and camera limitations (no zoom, main lens only) degrade photo quality and UX.
  • Not clearly or currently integrated with Apple Wallet; steps to add to Wallet are unclear or unavailable.
  • Inconsistent performance across devices and sentiment that the app is not ready for prime time.

This app needs a lot of work. Not worth the download yet

I can’t even scan my id. The app asks for access to camera to scan id, I grant access, it gives me a black screen when it’s time to scan. Have deleted it and reinstalled, still no luck. Also not even half priced books will accept it as form of id.

Insane that when you go to pull up your id it says error the app isn’t loading send a ticket. If these developers knew what they were doing, they would ensure there was a way to self troubleshoot but instead there is this garbage
