Pass Foundry is the ultimate tool for creating and editing Apple Wallet Passes (specifically event passes). With Pass Foundry you can: • Build new Apple Wallet passes from scratch. Have complete control over the design and functionality of the pass. • Open an existing Apple Wallet pass and edit any aspect of the pass. • Add the Apple Wallet passes you create and edit to your Apple Wallet or share with others. • Create an Apple Wallet pass from the screenshot of an existing pass. This is useful because some passes may be marked non-exportable. Pass Foundry is also available as a Mac app so you can create passes using a larger screen.
