Apple CEO Tim Cook may announce the new iOS features at the upcoming WWDC.

A report from The Information suggests that such features could be part of the iOS 12 unveiling set to take place at Apple's WWDC 2018 next week.

Apple first brought NFC chips to its devices with the iPhone 6, giving users the ability to pay with their phones via Apple Pay but that was more or less it. Then with iOS 11, the Cupertino, California-based tech company allowed third-party apps to access the NFC chip but with limited access.
