nfc

I agree Anna. It sure would be nice to write to NFC tags. I have an application which needs to set time to the device as well as calibrate the device. We'd also like to be able to reflash the firmware via NFC - all of these are operations we can do with our Android app but can't with an iPhone.

Would love to see Apple implement Peer to Peer NFC Communication.Android has this with Android Beam, but according to this article, this is not possible between apple devices yet.https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/379527/do-new-iphones-ios-13-support-nfc-in-peer-to-peer-mode

I am developing an app and having trouble implementing NFC HCE functionality on iOS. From what I found, NFC HCE seems possible in the EEA, but I need help doing it in other countries. Is there any way to achieve this through a specific license or certification from Apple? Any guidance or references would be greatly appreciated.

REYAX Technology, an IOT solution provider based in Taiwan luanched a new NFC/RFID modules that features Industrial NFC/RFID Engine and Apple Wallwt VAS & Google Smart Tap pass - RYRR30D, I believe this could fullfill your inquiries:)

Mifare Classic 1k are not fully compatible with CoreNFC, but you can use the compatibility mode in NFC Tools settings to read and write standard records (NDEF).Unfortunately, some features, like reading the memory cannot be used with this type of NFC chip.

nNo NFC support on iPad or watchOS.

MIFARE Ultralight can be formatted as NFC Forum Type 2 Tag.But MIFARE Plus can't be formatted as NFC Forum Type Tags.So it is not possible to use NFCNDEFReader API for MIFARE Plus.You can use only NFCTagReader API for MIFARE Plus.

I am not sure what you mean by since NFC cannot be enabled under the separate Apple Developer account Base NFC functionality is not restricted to be used at the account level. So if the app is only using basic NFC functionality, the other account can use their own credentials, profiles, and certificates to build and publish the app. If you are using a special NFC based functionality that requires special permission from Apple, those would be limited to be used only by the account and in some cases, only the app they were assigned to. If the app is required to be released under the other account, they will have to acquire the necessary permissions, create the necessary certificates and profiles and build it themselves to publish it. You cannot build an .ipa with your account and have it published by another account which does not have the necessary permissions.

It is probably too early for documentation and sample release. I think they will come out soon, maybe with beta 2. By the way, for what I've been able to understand, the new eventTicket format is an NFC only, so I think you'll need to provide NFC data for it to show up.

This response may be a little late, but just in case, here are some NFC readers you could use: https://www.acs.com.hk/en/products/548/walletmate-mobile-wallet-nfc-reader-apple-vas-google-smart-tap-certified/ https://www.vtapnfc.com/vtap-boxed-readers/
