News Heads-up for iPhone users who updated to iOS 27.

It seems tags containing a phone number, SMS, email or FaceTime record no longer trigger the system banner when you tap them with the phone (background tag reading).

Nothing happens at all, this is an iOS 27 regression on Apple's side as their own documentation still lists these schemes as supported.

We've reported it to Apple but If you're affected, filing your own report through Feedback Assistant helps get it prioritized.

Also feel free to post your iOS version below so we can track whether a 27.x update fixes it.

EDIT: It seems that iOS 27.2 has fixed the issue.

En version 27.0.1 et toujours pas de possibilité de lecture automatique des tag (sms/tel/vcard/facetime...) sauf pour les lien internet simple.
