Apple opens beta of Pass Designer for Wallet passes

Apple launched the beta of Pass Designer, a macOS app that lets users build Apple Wallet passes through a visual editor instead of writing JSON by hand. Previews use the same renderer as iOS and watchOS, and semantic tags enable Siri Suggestions, Calendar and Maps. It requires macOS 27 and an Apple Developer account.

• The app replaces hand-written pass.json with a visual editor for fields and colors
• Previews use the same rendering engine as iOS and watchOS
• Semantic tags enable Siri Suggestions, Calendar and Maps
• Requires macOS 27 and an Apple Developer account
