iPhone 12 mini's iOS v16.2's Wallet app shows Apple Account, but nothing else is shown?

Clicking on its top right "i" corner icon shows my e-mail address and four links (Safari's Website, Privacy Policy, Terms and Conditions, and Remove Card).


Am I supposed to be seeing more in these Wallet's Apple Account screens? Thank you for reading and hopefully answering soon. :)

I am personally not familiar with an “Apple Account”. I will guess, perhaps incorrectly, that account houses whatever credit balance you have under your Apple ID. [UPDATE: I just confirmed this in the literature.]

Regardless, your Apple Account appears to be the one and only payment method you have in your Wallet. (If you would like to add more, use the “+” button in the upper right of your first screenshot.)

So yes, your first screenshot looks like a normal Wallet display, with your Apple Account being a payment method, and your COVID record being one of the additional elements in your Wallet.

Bear in mind a typical Wallet looks like this.

Weird. I always had money in my Apple ID account and that was never there before. I wonder if it came up when I tried to add my debit card a few days ago, but it failed as shown in my Can't add my Middle Class Tax Refund VISA… - Apple Community thread.

Apple Account was added to Wallet with iOS 15.5 in May. Now, tapping that plus sign in the upper right offers these options:

Apparently you chose to add your Apple Account.

Yeah, I see those + options. Just strange to see Apple Account card by itself. I noticed I can't move this Apple Account card down. I can move other cards around except above this Apple Account card.


Removing Apple Account card said it would remove my transaction history. I wonder if manually adding my debit money into my Apple account caused this to Apple Account card to show up. Anyways, I tried removing this Apple Account card and did see the + option to add Apple Account. So, I readded it (previous history) to see what it was like. The result was different. Wallet's home screen now shows me how much I have in the account unlike before. Clicking on Apple Account card shows this card screen again:

That is still useless. What does yours show for it?


So, yeah. I never manually added this one before.
