Is there a way to stop Apple Wallet from opening automatically when near a paying terminal.

I wouldn’t mind it, but i have to give my phone to a bus driver so he could read my bus ticket’s QR code. As the payment terminal is situated near to the QR-code reader device on the same console, sometimes it takes 10 or even 20 seconds to get it done. It is annoying to the driver and to the passengers, too. Please help.

iPhone SE, iOS 16

I had the Double-Click Side Button setting On. I also tried with Off. This setting has no effect in the Apple Wallet's behaviour of popping up by itself when brought closer to an NFC reader.


In other words, this behaviour cannot be controlled by user at the moment. That's the whole reason of this thread. (and there are other threads like this if you search for it).
