I cannot for the life of me find anywhere in the NHS app where you enter your vaccination results or any sort of qr code? I could enter test results but can’t work out how you guys are doing this? (IPhone XS and NHS Covid app)

It's on the normal NHS app (where you can order prescriptions, speak to your gp etc.), not the NHS covid app.

It's a different app, I.e. NHS app, not NHS covid app. Takes a little while to get properly set up to show your covid pass, but not really complicated.

Apple phones are so yesterday

I am so pleased with my new Apple phone . I had an old version and had trouble getting into the Man City game . This thankfully made me update and bring me into the 21st century . It also enabled me to watch some of the Euros on it whilst camping.

Yes, I think so. We also have to download match tickets into the wallet on a game by game basis so both tasks will be a part of pre match routine. Probably takes less time than wondering where your ST card is and checking all your coats and the dog’s basket.

No you don't. The ticket automatically updates each game. I asked the club that very question.

Done. But mines only valid til August 1st after all that?
Edit: think it’s cos of the way I verified my info on setup (waiting for photo ID verification) so maybe after 24 hours I’ll get a full month?

Don't think anyone's explicitly said this yet, but you don't enter your vaccination results on the NHS app, the app pulls them in from your medical records where they are held centrally by NHS. A QR code lasts for 30 days and a new one is generated every time you log into the app. Not sure if this invalidates the previous QR code if yoz're still within the 30 days tho. Would think that it does

It's a bit iffy IMHO that the NHS app (like any app) has so many 'flavours'. Apple version seems ahead of the game, but even within android there's different versions. Somebody yesterday said they were able to take screenshots from within the app. Presumably an older version. My version shows a 'shimmer' on the covid results screen and no screenshotting is allowed anywhere within the app for 'security policy reasons'. I believe from something I read that this version was only introduced last weekend

Thanks, all done but am awaiting id verification hence mine is only valid for 2 days (I presume?)

Just noticed in the NHS App on iPhone, you can add your "NHS Covid Pass" to Apple Wallet.

Just navigate to it in the NHS App and you should have the option to do so below the QR code.

It's now sitting in my Apple Wallet alongside my Albion season ticket, both in fetching blue.

I imagine the same exists in Android-land, or maybe it doesn't. Who cares, anyway?


I have just added to my wallet but I see there is a renewal date. Does that update automatically as well?
