Major improvements in many areas
In addition to this, the new version of eID.li also features numerous improvements for its users. The upgrade includes technological advancements, enhanced security measures to safeguard the app even when used offline, and compliance with the international ISO/IEC 18013-5 standard for digital driver's licenses.
