The rollout of digital driver's licences in Queensland has picked up speed, with app downloads soaring after a technical hiccup earlier this week.
The Queensland government has provided an update after its digital driver's licence rollout did not go as smoothly as planned this week, with some customers experiencing technical issues while downloading the new app.
The Queensland Digital Licence app launched on Wednesday. Picture: Queensland Transport and Main Roads "We know it’s very popular right now, almost as popular as tickets to a Taylor Swift concert, and that is causing some delays for customers," she said on Wednesday. "Something went wrong: We are aware of the problem and are currently working to restore services," one message read.
The Digital Licence Verifier app for businesses, which allows organisations to scan the digital licences of their customers, has been downloaded more than 78,500 times. "Queensland’s Digital Licence app will set the standard for mobile driver licence apps across Australia and the world, and is yet another way that Queensland continues to be an innovative pioneer in the digital space."
