Apple needs to put an asterisk on the claim that the iPhone 13 wallet can be used for the vaccination card.

Apple’s notice could not be more clear.

From the article linked above:

This is not an Apple problem. It is up to the medical providers to offer the QR code. I was able to add my card to the Apple Wallet in about 2 minutes because my health provider offered the QR code.

If you have a beef, take it up with your medical provider.

I live in Pennsylvania. Last time I checked, that was in the USA. I was able to add my card easily. My provider offers the QR code. What don’t people understand about this. If your provider doesn’t offer the card, you can’t add the card to Apple Wallet.

We do not have socialized medical care in this country.

Without a QR code, all you can do is photograph your paper card and keep it in Photos. It’s possible your locality offers the ability to get that QR code (as, for example, California does).

From the article linked above… maybe there are other ways to get that code.

It also discusses pharmacies and Epic providers.

Then you’re out of options for now, other than Photos.

That’s there because that applies to most of the world. The Canadian and EU records go right in. America is just rather backwards, I’m afraid.
