Requires iOS 27: Poster Generic passes, featured actions, SF Symbol logos, and the Code 39, Codabar, EAN-13, and ITF barcode formats. Everything else works on iOS 26 and later. Turn anything into an Apple Wallet pass. That loyalty card taking up space in your physical wallet? Digitize it. A membership that only exists as a paper card or PDF? Put it in Wallet. Event tickets, discount codes, personal IDs, travel documents, or anything else you want quick access to? Passmaker handles it all. Creating a pass takes just a few minutes. Pick a style that fits your needs, whether that's a generic pass for everyday cards, a store card for loyalty programs, a coupon for discounts, an event ticket, a boarding pass for travel, or a poster generic pass that puts your own artwork across the whole pass. Add your information, customize the colors and images to match your taste, and tap to add it directly to Apple Wallet. No account needed and no subscription required. Got a barcode you need to keep handy? Scan it with your camera or import it from a photo, and Passmaker builds a pass around it automatically. The app recognizes QR codes, Aztec codes, Code 128, and PDF417, plus Code 39, Codabar, EAN-13, and ITF on iOS 27, so most cards and tickets you encounter will work. Need something more custom? Create your own barcode from scratch by entering the data yourself. Design your passes to look exactly how you want. Choose your own colors for the background, text, and labels. Add a logo image, or pick an SF Symbol instead. Include a strip image that spans across the pass, a thumbnail that sits alongside your information, or artwork that fills a poster pass edge to edge. Every pass you create can have its own unique look. Give your pass something to do. Featured actions add up to two buttons underneath it in Wallet: directions to the venue, a call to the shop, a link to your membership benefits, or wherever else you need to go next. They sit right there whenever the pass is open. Your passes can even appear on your lock screen automatically when you need them. Heading to the gym? Set your gym's location, and your membership pass appears as you arrive. Got concert tickets? Add the date and time, and they show up right before the event starts. It works just like passes from major companies, because it uses the exact same technology. Organize your information across multiple fields. Put the essentials front and center, add supporting details below, and include extra information on the back of the pass for when you need it. Poster passes go further with a footer field and an additional info section that holds longer details just beneath the pass. You control what goes where and how it all looks. Passmaker gives you the power to create real Apple Wallet passes, the same format used by airlines, retailers, and event organizers, without any of the complexity. No developer account, no technical knowledge, no jumping through hoops. Just a simple app that does exactly what you need.

About

MultiBrow

Features
Read full description

MultiBrow is a browser in which every container has its own cookies and its own sign-ins. Stay signed in to the same service with several accounts at once and switch with a single tap, instead of signing out and back in over and over. Safari cannot do this: all Safari tabs share a single cookie store, so a second sign-in to the same service ends the first. Private Browsing separates sessions but discards them on close. MultiBrow keeps every sign-in persistent and isolated — using a separate WebKit data store per container, a system feature introduced with iOS 17. WHAT IT IS FOR • A personal and a work account on the same service, side by side • Several clients or tenants, each in its own container • Keeping a test and a production login apart • A second account without disturbing the first one in Safari FEATURES • An overview of all containers as the home screen — create, rename and delete them, each with its own symbol and colour; deleting removes the entire data store • A freely chosen start page per container; the app is not tied to any particular website • Bookmarks per container: save, rename, reorder • History per container, with search and grouped by day • Downloads with progress, preview and export to the Files app • Lock individual containers with Face ID, Touch ID or your device passcode • Find on page • Siri Shortcuts and Spotlight: open a container by voice or straight from search • A real iPad app on iPad: Split View, Stage Manager, all orientations, keyboard shortcuts • Switch from a bar at the top • An address field per container: type an address or search directly • Optionally stay on the start page: links to other sites then open in Safari • Automatic reload after the app has been in the background for more than 30 seconds, keeping pages current whose connection dropped meanwhile • Pull to refresh; long-press reload clears the cache without losing the sign-in • Up to twelve containers loaded at once; under memory pressure background containers unload automatically • Open the current page in Safari • Usage limits at a glance: when a website reports how much of an allowance is used up and when it resets, the overview shows this per container as bars — usage against elapsed time, so you can see at once whether it is going to be tight. Useful above all with AI services that work in hourly and weekly windows, such as claude.ai. The figures come from the website itself; MultiBrow only reads along and requests nothing • Keep the screen awake if you want to • Interface in German and English PRIVACY MultiBrow collects no data. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, no advertising, no developer servers. Cookies and sign-ins stay on your device, separated per container, managed by Apple's WebKit. Bookmarks, history and downloaded files stay on your device as well. Unlocking a container is handled by the system; the app only learns whether it succeeded and never sees your biometric data. NOTE MultiBrow uses the system web engine. Websites behave as they do in Safari; their operators are responsible for their content and data processing.
