“Apple is very excited about what we’ve built on App Clips. There are very few companies using it,” says Aaron Painter, CEO of Seattle-based Nametag. His firm uses what is called App Clips on iOS and Google Play Instant (formerly Instant Apps) on Android to let customers conduct biometric identification against a user’s government-issued ID credential – without an app download or web browser. Exploiting the processing power of smartphones and locating a verified identity on the handsets’ secure enclaves without web browsers or app downloads is the firm’s approach, which Painter claims is “just fundamentally different than any other product in the market.” https://www.biometricupdate.com/202302/how-nametag-is-providing-reusable-identity-verification-without-apps-or-browsers
