Wait, are photo passes really happening this time? Google has made a couple of blog posts announcing the feature, but I’ve been regularly checking for the last several months and haven’t seen it. It was a nice feature of the original Google Wallet that was removed in one of the rebrands, I’d really like it to actually be back instead of just “coming soon” (not that soon)
The United States. And I’ve been checking for it since it was originally announced at the beginning of June. And… I guess another announcement means it’s not dead. Yet.
When will Google Wallet Pass photo import actually go live? It was announced over three months ago, and I’ve been checking for it ever since. Will this announcement mean it’s actually going to show up in the next day or three, or will I be checking in vain for several more months?
Existing beta users, what say you? Have the latest betas been stable enough to install on my daily driver? Are there a lot of useful advantages over Android 13? If I’ve waited this long to install the beta, should I just stay on 13 until the official release?
From reading the app description:
Everything happens locally in the wifi network
Does this mean devices have to be on the same Wi-Fi network for this to work? This looks extremely interesting as someone that runs Linux on my home computer, and the vast majority of my transfers are between devices on my home WiFi network, but I’d just like to know if it works elsewhere.
It’s kind of amazing it took this long - I don’t know why they didn’t do it this way from the start.
