Using your Govs Mobile ID on iPhone/Apple Watch

What is Express Mode?

Express Mode allows you to use your card at readers without unlocking the device or opening the Apple Wallet app.

Hold the device near the card reader. The reader will automatically pull up your Govs Mobile ID with a check mark stating "Done" when the transaction is successful.

You can turn Express Mode off if you want to require Face ID, Touch ID or passcode for each transaction.

Turning Express Mode off will deactivate the Power Reserve feature, which allows the Govs Mobile ID to be used even after your iPhone's battery dies.

To turn Express Mode on/off:
iPhone:
     ~Open your Govs Mobile ID in Apple Wallet
     ~Tap "i" in the top right 
     ~Toggle Express Mode on/off
