We have driver's licence as an app in norway. I was on my way into a pub where I was asked by a bouncer to show ID. I forgot my physical wallet with physical ID, so the dance started:

  • Unlock phone.
  • Find app.
  • App requires national login. Enter personal number (Norwegian SSN)
  • National login has 2FA via another app. Open that to confirm.
  • National login requires password. My password is in a password manager, so I open that.
  • Password manager requires password.
  • and 2FA.
  • Acquire password and scramble back to the app that required password for national log on.
  • Complete login so I can show that I am 33 years old, which is over the required age of 18.

In reality, the bouncer just gave up on me at around step 5 and let me in.

That sounds like a 60 second thing at most. None of it is worse than having to drive back home for your wallet.

In Norway, it has been a long tradition to do as many drinks as possible at home before heading to the bars, due to steep prices in bars. So I was pretty "beautiful" at that point, which does not help with running passwords and 2FAs

So driving back home would have been even more difficult as well (or illegal).
