iOS 18 announced improvements to the Wallet Passes. Does anyone have a link to the updated documentation? The old documentation does not have the changes as of the time of this post. There is a video, however, there are no specifications for the the new image formats (e.g., artwork.png).

Hi, I know it's currently possible to import a virtual debit/credit card from a mobile app into the IOS Wallet using PassKit from the Apple SDK, but I haven't seen any documentation to do it directly from a web app, could you please tell me if it is possible to do it directly from a web app without using a mobile app? And if so, point me to some documentation? Thanks in advance

There must be some rules that determine which set of localized strings of an Apple Wallet pass (.pkpass) is used when the choice is not obvious. For instance, I made a pass with localization folders ko.lproj (Korean) pl.lproj (Polish) zh-Hans.lproj (Chinese). If any of these languages is in my iPhone's preferred languages (Settings... General... Language & Region), then it's easy: the first one on that list is used. But what if the list does not have any of them? When I try, it seems the Chinese localization is chosen by the Wallet app. Without the Chinese localization folder, it is Korean. If I also add ar.lproj (Arabic) then Arabic is chosen. I can't discern any system here. How does Wallet choose the default localization?

The Wallet Passes docs, https://developer.apple.com/documentation/walletpasses seem to be missing any information about the features coming in iOS 18, specifically the new posterEventType, new semantic tags, and how to build out the event guide for a given ticket. WWDC24 session: https://developer.apple.com/wwdc24/10108

Hey there! I'm thrilled about the latest from WWDC24. I'm particularly keen on a feature announced for the HomeKit ecosystem called "Hands-free unlock". I'm eager to learn more about how this feature operates and how I can integrate it into my locks and access control systems. Could anyone please provide more details on how it works and how to implement it? P.S - I wasn't able to find any information about this in the IOS 18 Developer release notes.

Hello, I am having issues with Apple Pay for issuers. I am not able to get passes from my Apple Watch. I am 100% sure that my Apple Watch is paired, and debug logs show that a remote pass library exists. The issue is that I have my card added on both my phone and watch, and I always get a blank passes array for my Apple Watch. This is the code I am using: let localPasses = PKPassLibrary().passes().compactMap { $0 as? PKSecureElementPass } let remotePasses = PKPassLibrary().remoteSecureElementPasses When the card is already added to my phone, when I tap the "Add to Apple Wallet" button on in-app provisioning, I still get a choice to add the card to either my phone or watch, which is not correct. I am getting the FPANID from the other pass in my wallet and setting it on PKAddPaymentPassRequestConfiguration.primaryAccountIdentifier, which according to the docs should be all that is required. Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

For American Express cards, as of June 2024, no test cards from https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing/ can be added to the Sandbox Apple wallet and got this error. has reached out to Apple Pay Support. The device region, test account, app store settings are all pointing to United States as region.

Hi, I am integrating the HCE-based API into our SDK. Ideal flow It is bit tricky to support card change (step 3 below) after field-detect/double click due to NFC action sheet. Ideally, the flow is: User double-click. App launch "Hold near Reader" NFC instruction (optional) User change card User tap device to POS reader payment succeed. Approach A If I follow the code snippet in CardSession, where it calls startEmulation after readerDetected, I could change card before that. However, the "Hold near Reader" NFC instruction is shown very late, during tap. User double-click App launch (optional)User change card User tap device to POS reader "Hold near Reader" NFC instruction payment succeed. Approach B If I call startEmulation after sessionStarted, I could show "Hold near Reader" NFC. However, I could not provide the optional capability to change card anymore. User double-click App launch "Hold near Reader" NFC instruction User tap device to POS reader payment succeed. Neither approach A or B provide optimal approach shown in Ideal flow. Is this expected from CardSession that there is no option to startEmulation without the action sheet? Is there a plan to improve startEmulation so that it could show "Hold near Reader" without the action sheet? Thank you.

Hey everyone, I've noticed a recent issue in my app where users are not receiving automatic updates/ blank push to the pass added to the user wallet. Instead, they have to manually refresh the pass by dragging down the back of the Apple Wallet to see any updates. This might be because the blank push notification is not updating the passes. If you've encountered this problem or have any insights into what might be causing it, I'd love to hear from you. Your feedback is invaluable to me.

Hello everyone! In our application, we have login via phone number (with an SMS code as a password) and the ability to add a bank card to Apple Wallet. When logging in via phone number, upon receiving the SMS code, it automatically suggests filling in the input field. However, the field itself is not of type .oneTimePassword, and the SMS does not contain @domain, #code at the end (please look at the screenshot). So, when adding a card to Apple Wallet, PKAddPaymentPassViewController is launched, where entering the code from the SMS is also required to activate the card. However, no autocomplete prompt for the SMS password appears when displaying this field. Does anyone have information on why this is happening and how it can be implemented?

Hi, I’m testing out different possibilities for a client that wants to have a loyalty card service where users can register to download and install a wallet pass. This wallet pass should be able to receive push notifications. I have found a library that can generate apple passes but I struggle to find a good direction with the notification / update service. I’m most comfortable with using PHP but any other easy solution is also welcome. What would be a good way to start and test things out? Thank you!

Hello there, i'm new in trying to use the apple wallet API. we want to create passes to add identification credentials in the costumer's apple wallet. but we have doubts, for example: is it mandatory to pay the apple developer memebership to use the examples of apple wallet api? also, is there a way or an example of using this API in node.js?

Hello, I am unable to add Amex Cards to my AP wallet for a Amex specific AP test. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Thanks

Hi, I have used the following url to get a sandbox mastercard card to test apple pay. https://developer.apple.com/apple-pay/sandbox-testing/ I have managed to get it to work using a visa card however with mastercard I cannot. I either get 'Cannot add card' or when the card does get added it just states 'Activating' / 'Your Card is being Activated' Has anyone else had this or provide a mastercard that would actually work? I have tried every mastercard debit on that page. Thanks

At the moment I'm still studying the documentation on wallet order. See the following link: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/walletorders/example_order_packages, there are already finished .order files, but they cannot be added on my current IPhone 15 with IOS version 17.3.1. I get the error message via the Safari browser: Order cannot be tracked in Wallet This order cannot be tracked because the format is not supported. Download via Google Chrome and open file via Wallet app shows the same issue... Any clues as to why this might be and how to handle this situation?

Hello, as a developer I'm looking for troubleshooting options for Apple Wallet. I have obtained the certificates, signed the pass and dynamically generated a user-specific "Add to Apple Wallet" link on my website (not from an app). On Safari, on my IPhone, i get "Safari cannot download this file". On Chrome, also on the iPhone, I get "Sorry, your pass cannot be installed to Passbook at this time." If accessing the link from a desktop I'm able to download the pkpass file just to confirm that a file is being downloaded. But I need it to work on the iPhone. I believe that the MIME type, file extension, required pass properties are all set. How can I diagnose further? Is there a log file or developer mode I can activate in Apple Wallet?

Showing pre-authorization transaction as payment is confusing. It doesn't get removed even if we void the pre-authorization. Has anyone encountered this issue before, and if so, how did you resolve it?
