You can recharge Navigo but not load it onto your phone like with Apple Pay cards. That's only possible on Samsungs, not other Androids or iPhones, and even though according to one commenter this may not be the case much longer, I hate to see things that slow technical progress and QoL improvements down.
- dwaite 5y agoI looked more into it - you are correct, Navigo sounds like it still won't replace a physical card. My understanding is that do to patent royalties wanted by the underlying Calypso system, it was not merged into ISO 14443 and deviates in a few ways. Apple has historically implemented more of their NFC stack in hardware than other implementations, so there may be limitations as a result of the with communication with a card reader.
