iOS 15.1 Beta Lets Users Store Vaccination Card in Apple Wallet

Posted September 22, 2021 at 12:30am by iClarified
Apple released iOS 15.1 beta today which lets users store health records, including vaccination cards, in Apple Wallet.

Here's how Apple described the new features to developers...

--
With iOS 15, users can download and store verifiable health records, including COVID-19 vaccinations and test results, in the Health app. Verifiable health records in the Health app are based on the SMART Health Cards specification. Users can choose to share verifiable health records stored in the Health app with approved third-party apps requesting this information, like airlines, event venues, and other businesses that facilitate in-person interactions. And in an upcoming software update, they can also choose to add verifiable COVID-19 vaccination records as a vaccination card in Apple Wallet to present to businesses, venues, and more.


Organizations that issue SMART Health Cards will soon be able to use a new button to let users know that they can securely download and store their vaccination information in the Health app and quickly add and present it from Wallet. Artwork and usage guidelines will be available soon.
