If you have an iPhone, you can save your COVID-19 immunization card in Apple Wallet and use it to prove that you've completely vaccinated.

Businesses, schools, and government entities around the country are seeking confirmation of complete vaccination, including booster doses, as the highly transmissible omicron strain spreads rapidly across the country.

These requirements may only apply to staff in certain circumstances, but customers and visitors must demonstrate that they are up to date on their dosages as well. And, if you're traveling overseas, it's more crucial than ever to double-check your immunization status.

However, the printed record does not have to be kept in your wallet or purse: You can quickly save your immunization card on your phone to avoid destroying or losing it.

If you have an iPhone, you can save your COVID-19 immunization card in Apple Wallet and use it to prove that you've completely vaccinated whenever you need to. (You may also save a backup in the Health app.) With the WatchOS 8.1 upgrade, you may keep your Apple Watch card close at hand.

Also, you may save the snapshot in a notes app, a folder, or anywhere else simple to recall by making it a favorite. Make sure you're in a well-lit place and that the dates and other facts on the card are readable. Place the card on a dark surface and attempt to remove any shadows cast by your arms or the phone.

Here's how to put your Covid vaccination card in your Apple Wallet on your iPhone.

Step 1: Ask your vaccine provider for a downloaded file or a QR code of your vaccination proof. This is simply obtained from your immunization center.

Step 2: If you've got a QR code, open your iPhone's camera app and hover it over the code. Simply use your iPhone's camera to scan the QR code.

Step 3: A health app notice will display on your screen after your phone detects the code. Then press "Add to Wallet & Health" and choose "Add to Wallet & Health."

Step 4: Now, touch the 'Done' button to save the information to your Apple Wallet on your iPhone.

Step 5: Tap on the download link if you have a downloadable file or link for your Covid-19 vaccination record.

Step 6: Finally, tap 'Add to Wallet & Health' to store the information in your iPhone's Apple wallet.

Also, it is important to note that bbefore you proceed with the procedures above, make sure your iPhone is running the most recent version of iOS, which is iOS 15.1.
