Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
Suddenly I'm getting a "Not Your Wallet" message when attaching very-much-my wallet to my iPhone. This wallet has always been mine, always paired with iPhone, always in "Find My" - until this morning. I'm wondering if this glitch has anything to do with IOS 18.

You can solve the problem temporarily with the "find my" app. open "find my",
select devices and press + button and add a magsafe device,
undock the wallet and dock again. Now the wallet is recognized,
unfortunately only until the next reboot

I am having the same issue with my wallet in iOS 18.
I’ve had an issue with the wallet since I switched to iOS 18 and my iPhone 16 Pro yesterday. When I reboot the phone I get the ‘not your wallet’ message. However, the wallet is recognised in Find My and if I detach it I get the usual message about when and where it was detached. So the wallet works perfectly, I just keep getting the message! I thought perhaps I hadn’t removed it properly from my old phone, but a glitch does seem more likely.
I have the same problem. Have been using an Apple MagSafe wallet purchased new since I got my IPhone 14 also new 2 years ago. Now with the iOS 18 update it says this is not my wallet. This is for sure a bug.
Thanks. I've already done that a few times, and it has worked each time... briefly. Hopefully this will be fixed in 18.1.
Try updating to iOS 18.01.
The scary part for me is that I no longer receive an alert when the wallet disconnects from my phone.
Just to let you All know 100% a bug and is fixed in 18.1. If you go to settings -> software updates and allow pre RELEASES so you get iOS 18.1 the problem will be fixed. If you don’t want untested releases then the official IOS 18.1 release date is Monday 28 Oct 2024
Hi, I have the same problem with my FineWoven magsafe Wallet on iPhone 16 Pro iOS 18.
this Wallet works fine on my other iPhone 13 with iOS 17 and the same appleid. I think it is an iOS 18 bug.
if you got the patience Apple will replace it after a couple of hours with them they decided after it’s gone to L3 support that they need to send me a new wallet. I am technical myself and write programs for over 20 years so I know the issue:-
I was hoping with the debug season I had that Apple would simple identify the RFID remove it from their central database and we be fine. But life is not that simple :) good news is after 2 x hours with them and after L3 they decided we sent you a new wallet (works perfect BTW)
my advise if under guarantee just go to the Apple shop - with their support it takes take a ages and make you reset phone etc…
18.0.1 has not fixed this issue.
I agree 18.0.1 does not fix the issue
Dave.Townsend — you do understand this thread is about the leather MagSafe wallet and not the electronic wallet app?
I assumed it was the Wallet accessory for the iPhone:
I suggest you contact Apple directly. While I have seen reports of that message on previous iOS versions without a specific solution, I have not seen any other reports for users on iOS 18 where I would suspect there would be many if it was an iOS 18 bug.
I am unable to add my Apple MagSafe Wallet to my iPhone
