## Review summary

Most reviews describe Virginia Mobile ID as unreliable and frustrating. The biggest recurring issues are: unreliable facial recognition and scanning with little user feedback; frequent re-enrollment and data loss across sessions or after iOS updates; license/ID scanning failures and slow progress; no Apple Wallet integration despite user demand; and compatibility problems on newer iPhone models (e.g., iPhone 15 Pro, 16 Pro) and iOS versions. A minority note easy initial setup and view the app as a potential backup to a physical card, but the overall experience remains poor.

### Pros

- Easy initial setup.
- Provides a backup/alternative to carrying a physical Virginia driver's license.

### Cons

- Unreliable biometric facial recognition and scanning, with frequent failures and lack of guidance during the process.
- Frequent re-enrollment and data loss across sessions/devices; users report having to enroll repeatedly or lose data after updates.
- License/ID scanning failures with poor camera feedback and slow progress.
- No integration with Apple Wallet; users want to load the license into Wallet.
- Compatibility problems on newer iPhone models/iOS versions leading to stalled setup.
