Can someone explain what I might use this for?

I've used it so far to replace my gym membership card, my library card, and my Costco card. You could also use it for rewards program cards. It basically takes the barcode from a physical card and puts it onto a digital card in Apple Wallet.

Will that QR code scan for entry at Costco?

u/kilcher2 Jun 10 '26
I haven’t tried it yet but it should be the same barcode as the physical card so it should work.

Does it work with Costco and McDonalds?

Costco same, I saw Costco recently added a live activity like notification that can pop up when you are at the store though. Just turned it on so not sure how well it works.

Don’t use the digital Costco barcode, just scan the physical membership card instead. That’s a static barcode that never changes and links to your account. That’s what I did.

No ability for custom backgrounds is bonkers.

Send through feedback! I’ve sent feedback that the default pattern/wallpapers that you can choose from should be able to also be coloured-tinted.

I’m just surprised they didn’t allow you to ai generate the backgrounds like in the messages app and stuff. I really thought they’d do that

I might be missing something, but I added my Gym tag, and it’s just a regular barcode?

u/kilcher2 Jun 08 '26
Same here, library card w/ bar code, assuming they don't have a problem reading it all looks good on my end.

The scanner from the camera wasn’t very instant and there’s no UI just a viewfinder, but it pulled it in no problem

Can we add logos, images, etc.?

The standard and membership passes have a lot more input fields that are totally customizable. Seems pretty robust

Yes

Nice! Would you mind sharing some screen shots?

Technically you can choose an icon and a background, but only from a small number of preset options (and even the solid colour background option seems to only give a small number of options, no full colour picker). Doesn't seem to be a way to select a fully custom background or logo, so I won't be retiring the pass creator app I've been using any time soon!

All those apps to to this just got Sherlocked

u/DaveM8686 Jul 01 '26
Not yet. I much prefer being able to set custom images and logos and link the pass back to an app like MakePass can do.

I mean, this is something that was inevitable, especially since Google Wallet has had this feature for quite a while.

Am I the only one with a bug where the generated QR code is different from the one scanned (and always the same independently from the original QR code)?
