Makes you wonder why this wasn't always possible.. I go to lots of events that have qr codes on their tickets, this will be useful

Been using Wallet Creator for that matter. Free and no ads.

I need this without knowing before that I needed this. Makes me question why this wasn’t implemented years ago. Anyway, great.

Does just taking a pic of the QR code not work just as well?

It does, but then it's buried in your photos instead of on the home screen.

What is the difference between this and taking a picture/screenshot of the QR code?

For whatever reason apple required passes to be digitally signed with an apple developer certificate. On the other hand a screenshot/pdf is "good enough" that they didn't bother fixing it.

What a relief. My awful workaround was photos of all my membership barcodes labeled with a sharpie so that I can search "Gym" or "Library" or whatever to pull them up from OCR indexing.
