It is now official, even in Italy, starting from the month of August 2021, it will be mandatory to show the green pass to access certain services in everyday life.Those who do not have a copy will not be able to enter into public places, in the cinemas and not even in the most crowded means of transport.Consequently, having the code always at hand is certainly the best thing to do.The current access methods, however, are certainly not so immediate.In fact, it is necessary to access the application, or the immune (with internet connection perpetually activated), or again, look for the QR code between the myriad of photos saved in the gallery.For this reason, it is absolutely recommended to export the pass into your digital wallets.In particular, today we will see how to save the green pass on iPhone Wallet.

To do this, simply access the app, by inserting your credentials, reach the "Services" section from the options below, click on "Covid-19 green certification" and make sure that the Toggles to the right to "contact you in the App" and "Send you push notifications ”are correctly active.

In this way, as soon as the National Health Authority issues the certificate, the app will send a notification to its smartphone and can be displayed in the messages received.But we now arrive at the question of rescue.

On the official website of the application, in the section dedicated to the green certification, the possibility of saving the Green Pass on Apple Wallet is repeatedly reported, however, at the moment, the option turns out to be in the beta phase and therefore not available for the public.As a result, at the time of drafting this article, the digital ticket can not be exported directly from the app.We therefore advise you to keep the updates of the service under control, through the App Store, so as to be sure that you can do it as soon as possible.

Unfortunately on Android, the saving of the Green Pass on the Wallet is not available, simply because the aforementioned service is owned by Apple and accessible only by the iPhone.However, there are equally valid alternatives and which in the future will also be compatible with Google Pay, or Google's "Wallet".

Green Pass on Android with Stocard

But let's start with the most universal platform and that we have already analyzed previously.Stocard is in fact also available on Android and it is also the only digital wallet currently available for smartphones equipped with the Google operating system and compatible with certification.To start the configuration, we then invite you to download the app directly from the Play Store by clicking on this link.

Green Pass on Android with Google Pay

The ideal situation for all Android users is to keep all their cards within the Google Pay app, which currently supports payment cards, loyalty cards, coupons, tickets for events and those forpublic transport and planes.

Immediately after the official announcement of the Green Pass, however, Google immediately got to work with the development of a ticket capable of supporting all the data relating to certification inside.The interesting thing, however, is that to download the card, it will not be necessary to use any external application (such as I or immune), as all the bees will be accessible directly from the Google Pay service (or rather, of the Google Play Services).

Currently, however, all this will only be available in the United States, even if in the future it will be expanded to all European nations, or where the green pass is really useful and mandatory.It should also be specified that the Google Pay European Green Certificate will not be kept on the cloud as the other cards, so as to limit data sharing and keep the user's privacy.Access to the paper will therefore be protected by PIN code and biometric identification (digital imprint or facial recognition).
