A new 'Liveliness Check' User Interface
Apple's latest patent application covers "A Method" that comprises: at a computer system that is in communication with a display generation component and one or more input devices: detecting, via the one or more input devices, one or more user inputs corresponding to a request to add a digital identification credential to the computer system; subsequent to detecting the one or more user inputs: displaying, via the display generation component, a liveness check user interface including one or more directions for a user to provide liveness check information; receiving, via the one or more input devices, liveness check information; displaying, via the display generation component, an identity check user interface including one or more directions for a user to provide identity check information; and receiving, via the one or more input devices, identity check information; and subsequent to receiving the liveness check information and the identity check information: in accordance with a determination that the liveness check information satisfies a set of liveness check criteria and that the identity check information satisfies a set of identity check criteria: adding the digital identification credential to the computer system; and in accordance with a determination that the liveness check information does not satisfy the set of liveness check criteria and/or that the identity check information does not satisfy the set of identity check criteria: forgoing adding the digital identification credential to the computer system.
Apple's patent FIGS. 6B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, L, Z & AB below illustrate exemplary user interfaces for enrolling a digital identification credential.
Apple's patent FIG. 8G above illustrates an example scenario in which a store called Liquor Store is using external reader device to request certain types of digital credential information. In FIG. 8G, Liquor Store is requesting an indication (e.g., a binary indication, yes vs. no) of whether or not the user is over 21 (e.g., without requesting the user's actual date of birth), as well as the user's ID Photo.
Apple's patent FIG. 10B above illustrates that the last activity of the user's Digital ID at a liquor store, a pharmacy and transportation security administration application.
Adding Touch ID Biometrics
In Apple's patent FIGS. 10i and 10J we see that Touch ID could be added nationally as a second biometric credential. For payments or international flights, dual biometrics may be required. In other applications, user's will have the choice to choose their preferred biometric credential, Face or Touch ID.
To say the least, this is an in-dept patent application and to review full details, check out Apple's patent application number US 20220391482 A1.
