Proof, not appearances.
Modern passports and ID cards contain secure chips that can be read using NFC on a mobile phone.
Each chip holds identity data digitally signed by the issuing government.
Digital wallet credentials are signed in the same way.
The signatures are verified against trusted certificates to confirm who issued the data and that it hasn't been altered.
Secure communication protocols add additional protection against cloning and replay attacks.
Unlike document images or videos, this provides cryptographic proof that the identity data is genuine.

From credential to real identity.
