What you need to know

  • Google is working on a feature that adds text-based documents like student IDs, passports, and resident cards to the Google Wallet.
  • The feature is said to automatically detect the document's category and segregate it as general or private. Private documents need to be authenticated by the user.
  • Google also says that the company will not store any information about private passes on its system; it will be stored locally on the device.
