I couldn’t believe how forward thinking Louisiana was with the implementation of La Wallet, so I readily downloaded it when it was free. Now, probably over a year later, my local grocer still doesn’t take the app as proof of ID. My grocer is not alone, my bank doesn’t take it, TSA doesn’t take it, and numerous other entities have cast a suspicious eye at my digital ID.

How long must we wait for Louisiana’s lead in digital identification to be recognized?

It's an accepted way for JBE to track you when you disobey his orders. You gave him permission to do so when you downloaded it for "free."

The law is groceries are supposed to take or they can lose their liquor license.

Between it and the Geico app, I could forget my wallet and still drive anywhere in the state.

Worth it.

Congrats on giving the Chinese all of your drivers license data. I still can't believe people knowning download this stuff without asking about the application security or lack thereof.

People in this thread saying you’re giving your data to the government and Chinese as they type on their iPhone or Windows computer with the amazon Alexa in the background

My friend just took a picture of his license and kept it in the phone.

Early in the Wu Flu Scamdemic they made it free again. I missed the initial free period so got it then.

I don't have the fake "RealID" license so can understand why so much rejection apart from State Police. (If RealID wasn't fake, illegal aliens couldn't use it to fly, and drive, and vote, in the USA) StFarm app and LA Wallet means I can jump in a car and drive legally in the state anytime I have my phone.

Open up LAWallet on your device
Go to Settings
Go Legal

It outlines everything that currently accepts it.

Hi. No data goes to China or anywhere else. It was made in Hammond, LA by a bunch of locals.

I has an actual scannable bar code on it that is the same one as your DL moron. Not that easy to forge
