Apple Wallet Barriers for Access Control Adoption Examined
Despite announcing Apple Wallet Adds Mobile Access Control Support nearly two years ago, adoption among end users remains limited, hindered by Apple's approach.
In our recent New Products Show, we asked access vendors where things stand with offering Apple Wallet mobile credentials. In this report, we examine what the barriers are and how to overcome them.
This report is part of IPVM's Apple Wallet Mobile Access coverage, including (2021) Apple Wallet Adds Mobile Access Control Support, WaveLynx Adds Apple Wallet Support, and Apple's Financial Impact On Access Control Industry.
