iOS 27, expected to be announced at WWDC 2026, will reportedly add two concrete features to Apple Wallet: a 'Create a Pass' tool for digitizing gym memberships, loyalty cards, and event tickets, and a receipt-scanning bill splitter that ties directly into Apple Cash for group payments.
The Create a Pass feature is the more structurally significant of the two. If it works as described, it shifts Apple Wallet from a passive storage container into an active digitization tool, removing the dependency on merchants and venues to issue their own passes. The bill-splitting feature targets a narrower use case but is notable for using receipt scanning rather than manual entry, which is where similar tools have historically failed on friction.
The video is worth watching for the breakdown of how these features actually function under the hood, not just what they are called. WWDC 2026 is next week, so the gap between report and confirmation is short.
