Fouremco Posted September 24, 2021 #29 Share Posted September 24, 2021 When I scan the QR code using my iPhone, this is what I get. No need for additional software, just the iPhone's built in QR scanner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know how cruise lines and CDC have dealt with mixed vaccines, two different names of Astra Zeneca, etc. Call your cruise line and ask if they accept two doses of Spikevax. I will keep my paper records that identify my vaccines as Pfizer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thon Posted September 24, 2021 #32 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Well I give up. Managed to download the Ont. file without difficulty (at least 3 times!) and followed all the prompts. Added it to my Wallet from both iPhone and iCloud but neither QR code can be read by my wife’s iPhone. Just get a big X. Guess I’ll wait until Monday night when my 2 daughters come for dinner- their phones are permanently affixed to the ends of their arms so hopefully they’ll figure it out. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you download the Ontario file, by going directly to the OMH website or by going to the Grassroots program and downloading it from there? It will only work if you do it from within the Grassroots program. As I had downloaded copies previously and didn't want to waste time going through the process again, I tried using one of them to no avail, but as soon as I followed the instructions and carried out all the steps in the program, it worked perfectly. Let us know how your daughters do on Monday! 😇 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I am still master of the tv remote😀 I had no problem downloading from the Ont site and and then adding it to my wallet. But when I then scanned it with my wife’s iPhone all I got was a big red X instead of the nice green check mark. 3 times! Now when the province comes out with their QR code in October I’ll let my wife add it to my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyDawg Posted September 28, 2021 #39 Share Posted September 28, 2021 I had the vaccine receipt pdf's already so I just downloaded them to my Samsung phone and open the last one in my Adode Acrobat app. I'm not thrilled with the idea of putting a photo of my driver's license on my phone too unless I can make sure it doesn't get back up in the cloud somewhere.

Fouremco Posted September 28, 2021 #41 Share Posted September 28, 2021 One thing that I hadn't thought about until this morning was whether it works with an Apple watch Wallet like credit cards do. So I just tried it and it does! Select Vaccination Receipt from the Wallet on the watch and the QR code fills the watch face. Scanned that with my iPhone and up popped the green check mark and "Verified". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Grassroots process I believe requires a freshly downloaded receipt. It isn't just a display of the vaccine receipt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I viewed it with my phone from the desktop email, it worked properly; it showed the verified check mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zook50 Posted September 30, 2021 #48 Share Posted September 30, 2021 We're in Saskatchewan where everything is blowing up right now. We are begging our premier to ask for federal help now, as numbers are out of control. However, the government was smart enough to mandate proof of vaccine for many venues and businesses starting tomorrow. We have our MySKHealth record QR codes in our phones and have transferred them to a SK Vax Wallet app, implemented yesterday. Until then, we used Apple Wallet. The venues and businesses also have free access to a Vax Verifier App, used to quickly scan customers' codes. QR codes are fantastic, as they are hard to forge and offer instant vaccine proof. They also do not allow anyone to access any other private medical information. Hopefully, this will assuage the fears of the many who are hesitant or mistrustful.
