The app itself do not communicate with physical ID-card. App is like digital version of ID-card, once set up, you can use app to log in into bank etc. Setting up needs physical ID-card connected to PC computer, but computer talks with server and SmartID app also talks with server. What I was able to understand the app needs Google Play Services installed in phone and app also do not support microg version of Google Play Services. I did also write to app developer, how big work it is to make app working on SailfishOS directly or thru AppSupport. But I am not so hopeful they will invest to mutch time into this.
