I use an app called Pass2Wallet that lets me turn any barcode (loyalty cards etc.) into a Wallet pass, with location based invocation etc.

Thank you for the recommendation, but I don’t want to pay a subscription for something I use sporadically, especially (according to the App Store page) an AI-generated app which tracks you. I want to do what the author mentioned: take a static image and add it to Wallet. I don’t mind some legwork.

    I don’t pay for it, but anyone with an Apple dev account can do the same with Passkit. This just makes it easy to test it out.

      Yes, that’s what the article is about, I read it all. But the author also mentioned the screenshot approach before using Passkit and called it the naive approach, so it’s likely they did something considerably simpler.

      Feels like I’m on the worst parts of Stack Overflow and Reddit. I know other options exist, I’m asking about one specific approach. It is OK to not reply or say “I don’t know how to do it like that”. That’s fine, I don’t know either and I’m not embarrassed by that, that’s why I’m asking. I want to learn a new trick.
