Why is there no public APIs for developers (PassKit) to implement Apple Wallet NFC for employee badges as announced in WWDC 2021 Keynote? Can a simple Apple platforms developer implement this for the organization they are working on and don't have to go to third-party providers which seem to have this capability? Seems that I need to reach out to the below companies to enable this in the current organization I'm working with: third party providers: https://swiftconnect.io/owners/ https://www.hidglobal.com/solutions/access-control/hid-mobile-access-solutions

I'm very excited about the new AirTag product and am wondering if there will be any new APIs introduced in iOS 14.5+ to allow developers to build apps around them outside the context of the Find My network? The contexts in which I am most excited about using AirTags are: Gaming Health / Fitness-focused apps Accessibility features Musical and other creative interactions within apps I haven't been able to find any mention of APIs. Thanks in advance for any information that is shared here. Alexander

G'day. At my office the doors are locked with an NFC reader. We carry around a little NFC tag on our key chains which will read out a number and this then will open the door if the number matches a number in the database. I am tired of carrying around the tag, people keep loosing it, forgetting it and it would be nice to open the door using a Phone - which we tend to always have on us. So I used a credit card which is NFC enabled to readout the NFC information, added this number to the database and can now open doors using my credit card. This is pretty cool. If I forget my keys (most likely they will be on the desk but silly me left the desk without them), I may have my wallet with me. Then I tried Wallet.app on my iPhone and select the same credit card. However the door doesn't open. When looking in the door software I noticed that the tags will always transmit the same number. So does my credit card. However Wallet.app will read out 4 readings (or maybe just one very long one) and they are always different. So I can not make them match with the door database. Any ideas how to make this work? Can I give somehow wallet.app an NFC number which I can then add to my door database? Or how come the credit card and the very same one in wallet.app don't match? Thanks for your help! Would be neat if I could make this work out. This will make a lot of people happy at my office! Cheers!

Dear Community / Apple, I would like to ask in the name of many Smart Home Community, There is any developing / There is any future plan about make Apple Watches able to read NFC Tags / Stickers? Many of us would like to use Apple Watch to use Home Automations with NFC Stickers, but we have to use our iPhone instead of the Watch, what would be the most logical way to use these things. We does not really understand why this was not added by default, and why we cannot find any official information about this? Please provide us some answer, at least we should know should we still wait for this feature or this is not gonna be enabled by Apple?! Thank you very much, Gery

I'm trying to transfer data from one device to another using NFC. I'm trying to figure out if this is possible, I downloaded apple's sample project about CoreNFC, I was able to read NFC Tags (it wasn't a real NFC Tag, rather it was an NFC Tag emulated with an android device). Can I use my iPhone to emulate an NFC Tag to transfer data to another iPhone or Android device?
