Apple Wallet now stores Amazon return codes and will track orders from multiple retailers in iOS 26, signaling deeper cross app integration.
Apple Wallet Gains Amazon Return Codes and Tracking in iOS 26
Apple has added a feature that lets users save Amazon return codes in Wallet. The Add to Apple Wallet option inside the Amazon iOS app now stores the return code in Wallet, so shoppers can access it offline at the drop-off location.
In iOS 26, Wallet will begin to track orders from multiple retailers. Apple Intelligence will pull order data from emails and add it to Wallet, allowing users to see shipping status and delivery updates inside Wallet and receive related notifications.
Key Takeaways
"Apple Intelligence can automatically pull order information from your email inbox and save it directly in the Wallet app."
Describes the data source for the new tracking feature in iOS 26.
"This much-improved order tracking experience is just one of several big upgrades to Apple’s Wallet app in iOS 26."
Editor’s note on the breadth of Wallet enhancements.
"Having the Amazon return code inside Wallet is nice because it shows all the details you’ll need."
User-friendly benefit of the new return code feature.
This shift positions Wallet as a broader shopping hub, strengthening Apple’s ecosystem while increasing data centralization. Shoppers gain real convenience, but there are privacy questions about email parsing and data access. The rollout could press competitors to offer similar cross app features and influence retailer engagement.
The success of these updates depends on trust. If Apple provides clear privacy controls and opt‑in options, adoption may grow. If not, users could view Wallet as invasive or opaque, risking backlash and slower uptake.
Highlights
- Wallet turns into a shopping hub not just a wallet
- Offline access to codes beats chasing labels
- One app to track buys returns and deliveries
- The inbox is now a wallet companion
Privacy concerns with inbox scanning
The feature that pulls order information from emails into Wallet raises questions about data privacy and user consent. Clear settings and opt‑out options are essential to avoid eroding user trust.
The next steps will reveal how much people trust a single app to manage buys, returns, and deliveries.
