I am not familiar enough with NFC, would this allow standard NFC payments through apps OTHER then apple pay?
I know Apple has been getting some pressure (regulatory) about banks not being able to use their own apps and having to pay for Apple Pay.
- swrobel 9y agoHopefully this will allow NFC tap for airplane boarding passes instead of those awful screen scanners, as one example.
- dan1234 9y ago>Detect NFC tags and read messages that contain NDEF data. Looks like it just allows the iPhone to read other tags. >Reading NFC NDEF tags is supported on iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. I wonder why the iPhone 6/6S and Watch aren't supported?
- asendra 9y agoYes, that is a bummer. It means that all those NFC iphonse 6/6s in countries without Apple pay will never use the capabilities. Just stupid.
- mgw 9y agoNot out of the box, since normally the payment terminal is the reader. Theoretically this could be switched such that the payment terminals would send out a unique ID over NFC, which the iPhone would then relay to the terminal via a server.
