any interest in replicating for ios11?
ios11 supports reading nfc tags https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corenfc
Interesting that you asked because I thought about it myself when I heard about new Core NFC API.
Unfortunately it seems like it's still too limited and can only read NDEF tags, so as far as I understand it won't be able to read passport data.
@tananaev ah, ic. What tags do passports use?
I'm not too sure, but from what I read it's something different.
@mvayngrib different counties passport uses different tags, but most of European countries use ISO 14443 tags (a and b). Hope this helps.
any interest in replicating for ios13?
Is it possible now? Any references?

Interesting. Looks like there's even a library:

I don't think I would have time to work on it any time soon though.
