It seems that the time has come to translate paper documents into a figure. In any case, the authorities decided in Iowa, USA. Starting in 2015 (the exact date of the start of the new rule is not specified), state drivers will be able to use the phone application as a
driving license .
The application will be free of charge and will be considered as a spare identification card that can be used to provide the police, as well as during check-in at Iowa airports.

The digital driver's license will be provided with a pin-code, and show an animated photo of the driver (turn of the head). According to local authorities, police officers will be easier to identify residents of the state on such a certificate.
Despite the fact that Iowa is not as “high-tech” as California, here it has already been allowed to use a digital copy of its identity on a mobile device. Representatives of the US Department of Transportation in the state previously offer users to download applications in
iTunes and
Google Play . True, before the official introduction of this innovation, the digital driver's license will be tested by a team of officials.
If everything goes well, all Iowa residents will be able to use the “figure” instead of paper (well, even plastic) documents. For business and citizens it is quite convenient.
