e-Passport NFC Reader: An Android App for Secure Passport Data Retrieval
e-Passport NFC Reader is a free Android app developed by Anton Tananaev that enables users to retrieve data from electronic passports using the NFC chip. This app supports action, allowing third-party apps to access passport data. The app has been tested successfully with Russian passports, but it may not work with some other passports. Users who experience any issues are encouraged to create a GitHub issue to help the developer fix the problem instead of leaving negative feedback.
One of the most notable features of e-Passport NFC Reader is that it is completely open source, ensuring that it does not collect any personal information. The app stores data only in memory and removes it as soon as the app is closed. Passport data is never uploaded to a remote server, ensuring the user's privacy and security.
