geeteam Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Google Wallet users have been able to scan credit cards with their device’s camera for a while now, and it looks like Apple is getting their feet wet with the mobile payment game as well. Well, it’s a step closer, at least. iPhone users can now scan their credit cards with their cell phone’s camera in iOS 8. There are some restrictions however, learn more about the features after the jump. iOS 8′s ability to scan cards is currently restricted to online orders that you make through Safari. So let’s say you’re shopping on Amazon but don’t want to manually punch in your credit card info, you can just snap a photo to fill it in and voila! You’re done. You could always save the data for later or just elect to always take a photo of your card whenever you make a purchase. This is one of the many features that iOS is bringing to Apple’s iDevices.iOS 8 is currently only seeding to developers and will be brought to market this fall.

Technology Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Google Wallet users have been able to scan credit cards with their device’s camera for a while now, and it looks like Apple is getting their feet wet with the mobile payment game as well.bad newsTo be honest, this is not hacking or Good or bad new. Most of us already knew this will happen. The way technology is moving, humans are left behind. If this is bad news then entering details online of credit cards or debit cards, what are they?Honestly, I don't understand, should people including myself be scared of hacker or the Government. But the truth is the biggest hackers in the world are government watching over you. Nowadays, many many people are using smartphone, don't know how to use what are there features, advantages and disadvantages and how to turn off there features. People are getting involve with smartphone because the hardware and apps it offers matter not either its Android, IOS, Blackberry, Microsoft. But when its to features Android is the winner, and you can control almost anything possible with little bit tweaks. Whereas, IOS, Blackberry, Microsoft you can't, you are stuck with what you get.Entering or scanning credit cards details doesn't people will start taken your money, I would be more scared of government rather then computer hackers. This also goes for GPS, internet, network signals, online socialization. Take for example, Facebook, in the starting of the website, it was just signup and start chatting, post comments and upload pictures, slowly it became one huge giant of government play ground of collecting people information, since Facebook also including new features new some new permissions that is scary but people don't care they still signup and signin. Same will go for scanning credit card details, people don't care instead people will love it and get use to it people love new features not caring for risks.
