IOS PWA Application support Web NFC API

I'm developing a PWA application for Android, IOS and Web Application. In android and IOS, I need to provide NFC capability, I'm using Web NFC API. From what I understand, Web NFC API developed by chromium project and based in blink browser engine. However, IOS browser is using webkit engine. From what I read from following link, IOS block Web NFC API. https://webkit.org/tracking-prevention/

May I know any solution I can implement web nfc api in IOS?

Solution

  • Web NFC is not supported by iOS. Neither in Chrome or Safari.

    It is supported at the time of writing only on Android in Chrome 89. See https://web.dev/nfc/#browser-support
