The new version of the operating system that gives life to our iPhone, iOS 16, brings us some interesting novelties in the Wallet application, or Wallet. News focused on what we can leave the physical wallet at home and move with our iPhone with the same ease. Let’s review all the news about this interesting application.
Functions to centralize various processes in a single application
iOS 16 brings several new features to the Wallet app. One of the most interesting is the possibility of view and manage Wallet app transit maps in Maps
Another interesting novelty is the possibility of share our keys with anyone. Already in iOS 15 we can store our house keys, for example, in the Wallet app. Now, with iOS 16, we can securely share these keys through Messages, Mail, or third-party messaging apps. It is from the same Wallet application that we can manage the permissions of the people with whom we have shared the keys.
Other improvements, more aimed at managing our money than leaving the physical wallet behind, are the possibility of using Apple Pay Later to pay for purchases in installments or better management of Apple Cash, for now not available in Europe. Finally, also very interesting, now we can track the shipment of the packages we buy
It is true that outside the United States we are still waiting for the arrival of certain functionalities such as Apple Cash, Apple Card and a few others, in particular the possibility of adding our identifier or our driver’s license to the application . The truth is, however, that the Wallet app has all the potential to free us from the mask forever. It shows it better than ever in iOS 16 and it will get better and better.
