Hello, I’m working on creating an NFC-enabled Apple Wallet pass and I need assistance with the proper implementation of the pass.json file to include NFC functionality. My goal is to enable NFC interactions, such as tapping to unlock a door or interacting with other NFC systems. Here is what I have done so far: Set up a Pass Type ID and Certificates: I have registered a Pass Type ID in my Apple Developer account. I have generated and installed the required certificates (Pass Type ID certificate and WWDR certificate). Backend Integration: I have set up a backend service for generating passes, and I can successfully create and deliver standard Wallet passes without the NFC functionality. Adding the NFC Field: I understand that to enable NFC interactions, I need to add an nfc dictionary to the pass.json file. The key components for NFC include the encryptionPublicKey, message, and payload. Here’s an example of my current pass.json: { "formatVersion": 1, "passTypeIdentifier": "pass.com.example.mypass", "serialNumber": "123456", "teamIdentifier": "TEAMID12345", "webServiceURL": "https://example.com/api/passes", "authenticationToken": "my_secure_token", "nfc": { "message": "Tap to unlock door", "encryptionPublicKey": "MY_ENCRYPTION_PUBLIC_KEY", "payload": "encrypted_nfc_payload" }, "organizationName": "My Company", "description": "NFC-Enabled Access Pass", "logoText": "My NFC Pass", "foregroundColor": "rgb(255, 255, 255)", "backgroundColor": "rgb(0, 0, 0)", "barcode": { "format": "PKBarcodeFormatQR", "message": "https://example.com", "messageEncoding": "iso-8859-1" } } Questions: Are there any additional steps or configurations required to ensure that NFC is enabled in the pass? Is there a specific method to test or validate NFC functionality in the pass to debug why it’s not being activated? Any guidance or solutions to enable NFC in this pass would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

Hello, I am developing an application that involves writing data to RFID tags using NFC (ISO/IEC 14443A/B, Mifare, and FeliCa standards) for an electric vehicle charging station. However, I am consistently facing an issue where the Apple Wallet app is automatically triggered during NFC operations on iOS. This problem occurs every time I attempt to write data to the RFID tags, preventing the application from properly detecting or interacting with the NFC tags. Here are the key details of the issue: Device: iPhone (tested on various models and iOS versions) Issue: Apple Wallet automatically opens during NFC tag writing operations. Expected Behavior: My application should write data to RFID tags without triggering Apple Wallet. RFID Standards: ISO/IEC 14443A/B, Mifare, FeliCa. Code Implementation: I am using the Core NFC framework and NFCISO14443ReaderSession to communicate with the RFID tags. The same code works seamlessly with Android devices, but iOS continuously triggers the Wallet app. Here’s a brief code snippet that demonstrates the problem: import CoreNFC func startNFCSession() { let session = NFCISO14443ReaderSession(delegate: self, queue: nil, invalidateAfterFirstRead: false) session?.alertMessage = "Hold your iPhone near the NFC tag." session?.begin() } func readerSession(_ session: NFCISO14443ReaderSession, didDetect tags: [NFCISO14443Tag]) { guard let tag = tags.first else { return } session.connect(to: tag) { (error: Error?) in if let error = error { session.invalidate(errorMessage: "Connection failed: \(error.localizedDescription)") return } // Write data to the tag here // The Wallet app opens instead of allowing data writing. } } I've taken steps to ensure that I am not using NDEF tags, as I understand that may interfere with the Wallet functionality. Despite using the lower-level NFCISO14443ReaderSession API, the issue persists. I’ve also tried disabling all Wallet settings on the device, but the problem still occurs. Additionally, no such issues are experienced on Android devices with similar functionality, so it appears to be an iOS-specific problem. Is there a way to prevent Apple Wallet from being triggered when using Core NFC to interact with RFID tags? Any assistance or guidance on how to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated, as this is a critical feature for the functionality of the electric vehicle charging station system we are building. Thank you in advance!

When I am trying Write Virtual NFC from my iOS app the wallet app is open everytime. I just want to write the NFC tag data to RFID reader please help me with that.
