What's the Difference between World ID App and World App?

World's identity and money features are now split across two dedicated apps. 

World ID App is your identity app. Use it to get verified as a real human, manage your World ID and credentials, and unlock partner experiences and rewards available to verified humans.

World App is your money app. Use it for wallet-style features like sending and receiving funds and other finance-related actions.

Do I need a new account to use World ID App?

No. If you already use World App, installing World ID App doesn't require a new account. You'll sign in with your existing World ID — the two apps share the same identity underneath, and your verification and credentials carry over instantly.

Can I keep using World App?

Yes. Both apps run in parallel. World App continues to handle all wallet and crypto features, and nothing about your existing account or verification changes.

If you need to do something that isn't available in World ID App — like send WLD, access World Chat, or use your virtual bank account — open World App.

 

What's in the World ID App?

The World ID App is organized into three main tabs, each serving a distinct purpose:

Credentials tab

The Credentials tab is your home for attribute verification. It shows the credentials stored securely on your device and is the starting point for verifying credentials with World ID.

What you'll see:

  • Your World ID status: a prompt to get verified ("Prove you're human, fully privately") with quick-action buttons to Get verified or Explore all
  • Actions available to verified humans: including unlocking human-only actions, accessing human rewards, and earning a verified human badge
  • Learn about World ID: educational cards explaining what World ID is and how to get verified, plus a World ID Privacy section

For Humans tab

The For Humans tab highlights exclusive benefits, integrations, and rewards available to World ID-verified users, where available.

  • Featured integrations: Tinder ("Date with real humans"), Zoom ("Meetings without deepfakes")
  • World ID Rewards: earn points and explore available rewards
  • World ID for consumers: Earn Razer Gold, Get 5 free boosts on Tinder, Concerts for real fans on World Music
  • World ID for agents: Meetings without deepfakes (Zoom), AI agent auth (Browserbase), Free agent search (Era), Proof of human APIs (Okta)
  • Mini Apps: Invite friends and earn, Unique Humans, Discounts around you, Verify humanness offline

Tapping any integration opens a detail page showing what it unlocks, a preview, what's shared (Proof of Unique Human only), what's not shared (Orb image, face photo), and partner info.

Notifications tab 

The Notifications tab keeps you up to date on activity related to your World ID. Notifications are grouped by time, such as Today and This week, and can include:

  • Verification requests from connected apps (for example, when someone wants to verify you in another app)
  • Announcements about new World ID features

If push notifications aren't turned on, you'll see an option at the top of the tab to enable them so you don't miss important updates. You can also manage push notifications in Settings.
