I te 14 o Ākuhata, i panui ohorere a Apple ka whakatuwherahia e ia te maramara NFC o te iPhone ki ngā kaiwhakawhanake, ā, ka taea e rātou te whakamahi i ngā wāhanga haumarutanga o roto o te waea hei whakarewa i ngā mahi whakawhiti raraunga kore-pa i roto i ā rātou ake taupānga. He māmā noa iho, ā muri ake nei, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakamahi iPhone te whakamahi i ā rātou waea hei whakatutuki i ngā mahi pēnei i ngā kī motuka, te whakahaere urunga hapori, me ngā raka tatau atamai, pērā i ngā kaiwhakamahi Android. Ko te tikanga hoki tēnei ka memeha haere ngā painga "motuhake" o Apple Pay me Apple Wallet. Ahakoa, i te tau 2014 i runga i te raupapa iPhone 6, i tāpirihia e Apple te mahi NFC. Engari ko Apple Pay me Apple Wallet anake, kāore i te tino tuwhera te NFC. I tēnei whakaaro, kei muri a Apple i te Android, nō te mea kua roa a Android e whai rawa ana i ngā mahi NFC, pēnei i te whakamahi i ngā waea pūkoro hei whakatutuki i ngā kī motuka, te whakahaere urunga hapori, te whakatuwhera i ngā raka tatau atamai me ētahi atu mahi. I panui a Apple mai i te iOS 18.1, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakawhanake te tuku whakawhiti raraunga kore-pa NFC i roto i ā rātou ake taupānga iPhone mā te whakamahi i te Huānga Haumarutanga (SE) i roto i te iPhone, motuhake mai i a Apple Pay me Apple Wallet. Mā ngā api NFC me SE hou, ka taea e ngā kaiwhakawhanake te whakarato i te whakawhiti raraunga kore pa i roto i te Taupānga, ka taea te whakamahi mō te kawe waka, te tohu tuakiri kamupene, te tohu tuakiri ākonga, ngā kī kāinga, ngā kī hōtēra, ngā tohu kaihokohoko me ngā kāri utu, tae atu ki ngā tīkiti huihuinga, ā, ā muri ake nei, ngā tuhinga tuakiri.
