The latest updates to the NFC reader interface were discussed in the session titled "What’s new in Wallet and Apple Pay" at WWDC 2024. This year, Apple focused on improving the experience for NFC event tickets. Here are some key points:
- Richer Ticketing Experience: There are visual upgrades to tickets in your wallet, a new event guide for detailed event information, and stronger system integration with apps like weather and calendar.
- Pass JSON Requirements: The pass JSON must provide a set of required semantically tagged information to help the system better understand the data provided in the pass.
- Preferred Style in Pass JSON: You can specify whether you want passes rendered with the new style by adding the preferred style in the pass JSON.
- NFC Entitlement: Your pass needs to be signed with the NFC entitlement for ticket holders to use their passes for contactless entry.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the session What’s new in Wallet and Apple Pay.
