California driver’s license holders can now add their state ID to Apple Wallet on their IPhone and Apple Watch, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced Thursday.

The digital IDs will be accepted at Transportation Security Administration (TSA) check points, including Los Angeles International Airport and San Francisco Airport, as well as select businesses. 

“With this new integration, we’re working to better serve the people of California in the 21st Century,” Newsom said in a statement.

Here’s how to add your ID to Apple Wallet

1. Go to Apple Wallet
2. Click the + button on the top right-hand corner
3. Under the “Add to Wallet” section, tap “Driver’s License or State ID” to select “California mDL Pilot.
4. Scan the front and back sides of your California ID
5. Scan your face
6. Take a picture
7. Wait for verification from the California DMV.

But there’s a catch

The mobile driver’s license (mDL) pilot program is currently only limited to 1.5 million participants. 

If your license is expired or suspended, your mDL will be rejected.

Other factors that could impact your mDL applications are:

• Wearing headwear
• Not using plain background
• Lack of consistent lighting
• Other faces in the frame
• Wearing sunglasses
