The new Snapdragon SoCs -- the new Snapdragon 865 and 765, will be the first to support Android R's new Android Identity Credential API, Qualcomm and Google announced at the Snapdragon Technology Summit Thursday.
This means that users can store their credentials, such as their driver's license, on a mobile device to quickly confirm their identity online and offline.
This can greatly speed up the authentication process for purchasing goods and services, but it can also provide an additional layer of security for mobile users.
Google will launch Android R system next year. Not much is known about Android R just yet, but it will likely come packed with a raft of improvements and upgrades for mobile users.
