How to hide the NFC reading pop-up prompt?

Dear Apple Engineers, I am using NFCNDEFReaderSession to read information from NFC tags. When calling the begin method of the session, a system dialog/popover appears at the bottom of the screen. Is it possible to suppress or disable this dialog? Thank you for your assistance. Here is my demo code:

@IBAction func beginScanning(_ sender: Any) {
        guard NFCNDEFReaderSession.readingAvailable else {
            let alertController = UIAlertController(
                title: "Scanning Not Supported",
                message: "This device doesn't support tag scanning.",
                preferredStyle: .alert
            )
            alertController.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .default, handler: nil))
            self.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
            return
        }

        session = NFCNDEFReaderSession(delegate: self, queue: nil, invalidateAfterFirstRead: true)
        session?.alertMessage = "Hold your iPhone near the item to learn more about it.
        session?.begin()
    }

It is not possible to suppress this dialog. It is there to indicate to the user that an NFC transaction is taking place.
