Student ID Support Coming to iPhone and Apple Watch, Starting With Select Colleges in United States

Open this damn API so we can make our own solutions... irritating

And yet no support for the cards to enter our offices....

So if the high school student forgot his iPhone (very unlikely thing to happen) he would not have any ID to show the campus security guard.

So...which do you think is more
Likely...a teen forgets to take her phone, or forgets her ID? Plus...it’s about the watch.

One of the only reasons we use students cards is to have on the desk during exams.

Good luck letting you have your phone there for your card.

Don't know what campus you're referring to, and I know this is a really late response, but at OU we're required to use our IDs for, and this is just off the top of my head:

* after-hours building entry
* printing
* access to the campus gym
* access to dorm halls
* access to bedrooms in newer dorms
* laundry in the dorms
* meal plans (unless ordering on mobile)
* access to many campus events

Very rarely have I had to leave my ID out on my desk during an exam, and that's happened only in the few massive lecture-hall classes I've had to take. Many of the professors in my classes wouldn't really care to see a phone on the desk for that purpose. Maybe that's just because I'm in a fairly small major, but in any case, exams are far from "one of the only" reasons that student ID cards are used on many campuses.

I guess we're not getting RFID cards like we thought
