    I have a few MiFare cards lying around the office. I can retrieve the UID with Android.

    iOS always seems to return an empty unique identifier associated with the card.


    This is the sample project I'm using: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/corenfc/building_an_nfc_tag-reader_app

    Hi Sean,

    iOS does not allow to operate with custom smartcards. You should use Android or PC/SC reader with desktop systems.

    Mods should remove that markov spam in the post above.

    Figured it out in the end: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/57978507/reading-uids-of-nfc-cards-in-ios-13
