Apple unveiled iOS 27 at WWDC, adding two AI‑powered tools to its Wallet app. The new “Create a Pass” button lets users scan a physical card with the phone’s camera or build one from scratch in Standard, Membership, or Event styles. This move positions Wallet as a single hub for all ticket types for mobile users.

Another addition is Split Bill with Apple Cash, triggered by the new Siri mode in the Camera app. After scanning a receipt, Wallet offers ‘Request’ or ‘Pay Your Share’ options, streamlining group payments directly from the phone without leaving the device or copying details onto another app or service—a seamless experience for everyone.

iOS 27 also refines Wallet’s UI, making Orders easier to reach and updating the app icon. These tweaks aim to improve daily use, but the real draw remains the AI features that reduce friction when adding passes or sharing payments for users who value speed and convenience in their daily transactions across multiple services and locations.

For consumers, the new tools mean fewer steps to manage travel tickets, event passes, or group expenses. Apple’s focus on AI and integration keeps Wallet competitive against rival digital‑wallet platforms, solidifying the company’s ecosystem strategy by providing instant access to essential documents and payments without the need to switch apps or devices—a streamlined experience.
