Ecosystem Support​

Protocols​

Apple platforms only support ISO 18013-7 Annex C for presentation. OpenID for Verifiable Presentations (Annex D) is not supported.

Verification in native apps is done with a proprietary platform API.

Credential Formats​

Apple platforms only support the ISO 18013-5 mdoc format via the Digital Credentials API and the credential manager API (used by wallets and referred to as the "Identity Document Provider" on Apple platforms).

To support additional credential formats, insecure methods like custom schemes must be used.

Doc Types​

Apple platforms only support the following document types via the Digital Credentials API:

  • org.iso.18013.5.1.mDL (mobile driving license)
  • org.iso.23220.1.jp.mnc (Japan MyNumber card)
  • org.iso.23220.photoid.1 (general photo ID)
  • eu.europa.ec.eudi.pid.1 (EU personal ID card)

To support additional doc types, insecure methods like custom schemes must be used.
