I tried your sample app and it won't work on my German passport no matter which settings I use.

The error suggests that passport doesn't support BAC protocol. This is usually the case with German passports. Try using PACE protocol.

Okay, so you have a feature in your sample app? If not I'll just need to know, so I'll write my one ^^

But according to the federal office for information security BAC is used in German e-passports.

PACE is only used for German ID cards.

Seems to be an iPhone issue, since it now works with no changes made
