Navigo card now works for Apple Wallet

Just came across this old news from Apple newsroom dated 5/21/2024:

Customers can add a Navigo card to Apple Wallet and simply tap their iPhone or Apple Watch to ride the metro, train, bus, and more in the Paris region

https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2024/05/apple-and-ile-de-france-mobilites-introduce-navigo-for-iphone-and-apple-watch/

In Apple Wallet:

  • Tap '+' to add card to Wallet
  • Tap 'Transit Card'
  • Scroll down and tap 'Navigo'
  • Tap 'Continue'
  • Tap the pass (1-Day all zones, 1-Day zone 1-3, multi days, t+, Carnet 10 t+, RoissyBus, etc) you want to buy
  • Tap 'Buy' and complete the process

In order to add Navigo (île de France mobilités) to my Apple Wallet; I bought one t+ ticket just so I can complete the initial process. Once that's done you can tap on 'Buy More' to buy the same type of pass later; but only after you have used the existing one (I believe it does not allow two identical passes at the same time). To buy different type of passes; tap the more options menu icon (circle with 3 horizontal dots) at the right top corner and tap 'Buy Passes'

One note, I’ve seen a couple of reports on this, and some people were unable to do it until they were actually in France. Now that may have just been initial rollout problems, but if you can’t do it don’t panic.

If you go to his France section, the Man in Seat 61 has a tutorial on this.

It's possible it also works on Android phones, he explains.
