[Bug 25332] New: Add library card to iPhone wallet
https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25332 Bug ID: 25332 Summary: Add library card to iPhone wallet Change sponsored?: --- Product: Koha Version: 19.11 Hardware: All OS: All Status: NEW Severity: enhancement Priority: P5 - low Component: OPAC Assignee: oleonard@myacpl.org Reporter: cbrannon@cdalibrary.org QA Contact: testopia@bugs.koha-community.org I know there are apps one can get to mimic the barcode, but I am wondering if there is any way to add a link to the patron info screen in the opac that would add the patron's card to their iPhone wallet? I'm seeing more options these days for this. Reward cards are starting to migrate to this storage. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I don't think it gives any insight into how it could be accomplished on our end. I'm pretty sure you'd have to have an app installed on the iPhone which would interface with the OS's wallet system. Perhaps someone with some app development experience could confirm. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

I'm pretty sure you'd have to have an app installed on the iPhone which would interface with the OS's wallet system. Perhaps someone with some app development experience could confirm.
You don't need an app to add to the Apple Wallet. Servers send cryptographically signed compressed packages to the user who can add the package to their phone's wallet as a pass. The tricky bit with Apple is that the signature needs to be done using a key from an Apple developer account. I don't think we'd want to do this at a community level; I think it would need to be done at an institutional/organisational level. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=25332 --- Comment #9 from David Cook <dcook@prosentient.com.au> --- Discovery layers like Solus have a "My Barcode" option in their mobile app which is what I typically use. They do have the Google/Apple wallet integration, and while I added the library card to my wallet... I don't really use it. I just use the library app. Solus have integrated with a couple of Koha libraries in Australia and New Zealand. Using them is another option as well. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. You are the assignee for the bug.
