Features & Capabilities

Alaska Mobile ID by Thales is the official app-based version of your Alaska driver license or ID card. After activation with the Alaska DMV, you can securely display your digital identity or age verification on your smartphone to participating businesses and law enforcement. The app uses Thales security standards and keeps your device in your hand during verification.

Note that it does not replace your physical license; Alaska law requires carrying the physical license when driving. This digital credential offers a convenient, contactless alternative for identity verification and age checks, with only the necessary information shared.

User Reviews

User reviews consistently describe Alaska Mobile ID as unreliable and painful to use. The core problems are frequent crashes during setup and data entry, unreliable ID/barcode scanning, and DMV mismatch errors that prevent progress. Many users report lost data and having to restart from scratch, with little to no helpful support. While the concept is a solid idea, the app currently fails to deliver a dependable workflow and needs substantial stability and data-verify improvements.
Pros
  • The concept of a digital Alaska ID is a good idea.
  • Barcode/ID scanning can work under certain conditions for some users.
  • The app aims to streamline DMV verification when functioning properly.
Cons
  • Frequent crashes during setup, login, scanning, or data entry.
  • ID/barcode scanning is unreliable; camera focus issues prevent reading.
  • Manual data entry leads to DMV mismatch errors or rejection of information.
  • Progress is not saved; users lose data and must start over.
  • Support appears unhelpful or slow, with inconsistent responses.

Is this app vibe coded? It either crashes or craps out saying that my information doesn’t match what the DMV has and then crashes.

Scan feature doesn’t work and neither does the manual entry option. Worthless.

Tried a few times to get it to work. Camera barcode scan non functional. Entering manual info makes it crash. Not sure why AK uses this company, TBH. These are simple issues that should work in 2026 Update: emailing tech-support as suggested in these review reviews was completely unhelpful. They simply suggested restarting and reinstalling the app. Clearly that didn’t work.
