nfc

I've started building an app that uses NFC to communicate towards a device. The initial communication is being triggered as intended, the last step of authentication is sent the connection seems to drop with the message: -[_NFCardSession validateReceivedAPDU:]:236 Invalid ISO7816 APDU detected, (null) The same response has been validated on an Android device and the process works fine there, but .readerDeselected is triggered instead of .received with cardAPDU. Any way to see which part of the validation that fails? Best regards

A few days ago scanning NFC tags or QR codes for AppClips with advanced experiences started showing the error The operation couldn't be completed. (CPSErrorDomain error 2.) in the AppClip sheet as seen here: We are providing AppClips to our customers and they trust AppClips to always work, since it is a big part of their business. Since this is happening at our customers phones and on the phones of their customers, I don't have a sysdiagnose. I already created a feedback entry about this FB16601674. We checked everything, our AASA file, the Appstore Experiences.

I am unable to get an iPhone Xr (iOS 18) or iPhone 15 to interact with Texas Instruments RF430CL330H NFC tag. This is an ISO 14443B-compliant tag supporting NDEF. It is NFC Tag Type 4. A Samsung S23 with Android 14 and NFC Tools v8.11 reads and writes NDEF data with this tag as expected. The iPhones with NFC Tools v2.31 do not. For the following comparison the NDEF memory is written with a pre-loaded text data record. NFC Tools on Android reports the following: Tag Type: ISO 14443-4 Technologies Available: IsoDep, NfcB, Ndef Serial Number: Format: NFC Forum Type 4 Text Record 1: UTF-8 (en) Hello World! NFC Tools on iOS (iPhones) reports the following: Tag Type: ISO 7816 Technologies Available: Unknown Serial Number: Format: Text Record 1: Error response: This nfc tag is not supported Attempting to write a text message with NFC Tools on the iPhones returns An error occurred during writing process Other NDEF records (URL and Sear

We are developing an iOS app that communicates with a device using an NXP NTAG 5 chip in ISO15693 pass-through mode. While the app works flawlessly on older iPhone models (iPhone 8, SE, X) and most Android devices, we are experiencing severe reliability issues on iPhone 12, 13, 14, and 15. Issue Summary On newer iPhones (12–15), 90% of communication attempts fail. Retry strategies do not work, as the NFC session is unexpectedly canceled while handling CoreNFC custom commands. The issue is not consistent—sometimes all requests fail immediately, while other times, a batch of reads might succeed unexpectedly before failing again. Technical Details The failure occurs while executing the following request, which should return 256 bytes: tag.customCommand(requestFlags: .highDataRate, customCommandCode: commandCode, customRequestParameters: Data(byteArray)) { (responseData, error) in } The returned error is: -[NFCTagReaderSession transceive:tagUpdate:error:]:897 Error Domain=NFCError Code=100 Tag connection

Hello Apple Developer Team/Community, I am working on developing an Apple Wallet pass with NFC functionality for our electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. The goal is to enable a tap-to-start charging feature, providing a seamless and efficient experience for users. However, my request for an NFC certificate to enable this functionality has been rejected. Here is a summary of my use case and actions taken so far: 1. Use Case: The Wallet pass will allow users to initiate charging sessions by tapping their iPhones or Apple Watches on the EV charger. This feature aims to simplify the process by eliminating the need for additional apps, physical cards, or manual inputs. It enhances accessibility and aligns with Apple’s goals of providing users with secure and convenient solutions. 2. Steps Taken: Submitted the NFC certificate request with a detailed explanation of the functionality. Included diagrams and supporting documents demonstrating the workflow and system readiness. Received a

Hello, I'm trying to use the CardSession sample code in an iPhone app I have received the HCE entitlement, the select identifier array contains only one AID of 8 bytes: FAEBDA5003020000, that is a custom AID that we use on ou custom access control system. We have the complete control of the NFC reader, when we detect a MiFare card, the reader application send the SELECT AID command and the card number is return and checked We want to do the same with an iPhone instead of the MiFare card, so we use the CardSesion sample in our app, here is the log of the reader application when we present the iPhone on it: TX: 0x04 0xfc 0xd4 0x4a 0x01 0x00 0xe1 0x00 RX: 0x00 0x00 0xff 0x00 0xff 0x00 ACK RX: 0x00 0x00 0xff 0x11 0xef 0xd5 0x4b 0x01 0x01 0x00 0x04 0x20 0x04 0x08 0x10 0x53 0x17 0x05 0x78 0x80 0x71 0x00 0xc6 0x00 // SMARTPHONE NFC type 1 pn532InSelect TX: 0x03 0xfd 0xd4 0x54 0x01 0xd7 0x00 RX: 0x00 0x00 0xff 0x00 0xff 0x00 ACK RX: 0x00 0x00 0xff 0x03 0xfd 0xd5 0x55 0x00 0xd6 0x00 pn532InDataExchan

My app helps users connect to Wi-Fi networks, and I have requested the Access Wi-Fi information entitlement. This allows the app to retrieve the current Wi-Fi information to ensure the user’s connection is successful. Now, we are trying to implement an App Clip that enables users to connect to a specific Wi-Fi network through a QR code scan or NFC in certain scenarios. In the App Clip, I’ve requested the Hotspot entitlement, which allows the app to use the hotspot manager to configure Wi-Fi networks. However, since I cannot access the current Wi-Fi information in the App Clip, I’m unable to confirm whether the connection was successful.

We have a financial application where we want to use NFC to broadcast a Payment URL to another iPhone or Android device when initiating a payment transaction. This will then open the banking application installed on the recipient’s device, allowing the transaction to be completed. We have already made the necessary requests to Apple and configured the entitlements file as follows: <key>aps-environment</key> <string>development</string> <key>com.apple.developer.nfc.hce</key> <true/> <key>com.apple.developer.nfc.hce.iso7816.select-identifier-prefixes</key> <array> <string>D2760000850101</string> </array> <key>com.apple.developer.nfc.readersession.formats</key> <array> <string>TAG</string> <string>NDEF</string> </array> </dict> I've tried to use CardSession with the sample code provided by Apple on their site: Card Session The connection between the devices (two iPhones, OS
