For a few days, Apple has released watchOS 8.5 adding a couple of cool features. In addition to the possibility of authorizing Apple TV purchases and subscriptions directly from the watch, the novelty that can be more useful in everyday life is certainly the possibility of viewing the Green Pass directly on the Apple Watch (the opening image is purely indicative).
Smartwatches are born precisely to carry out all those operations that yes, we could do with the smartphone, but which come back more comfortable with a wave of the wrist. But how to view your Green Pass directly on the Apple Watch?
HOW TO GET THE GREEN PASS ON APPLE WATCH
The procedure is actually very simple. This unprecedented possibility is actually nothing more than the result of the addition, with the latest version of iOS (15.4, released simultaneously with watchOS 8.5) of support on Apple Wallet to the format of the digital COVID certificate issued by the EU.
And so to be able to have the Green Pass on your wrist simply add it to your Wallet on iPhone. We remind you that to add it to Wallet it is necessary to frame the QR code of your Green Pass through the iOS Camera app. End of the required steps: just open the Wallet on Apple Watch to find the Green Pass there as well, together with all the other cards and other documents supported and added to your digital wallet.
Warning: not all Apple Watches can benefit from this feature. In order to receive this functionality as mentioned it is necessary to download the update to watchOS 8.5, which is available for Apple Watch Series 4 or later.
