I was asking on behalf of an older couple who just have the one phone between them, because that's all they need. Be a minor nuisance at an airport I suppose, log out, log in, but not unworkable. How about taking snap shots of the QR codes prior to Travel? No need to log in at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

immortalpuppet Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 You don’t need the app, you can login/logout to NHS England via a phone browser if people are sharing a phone. You would need separate logins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How 'convertible' are these passports? At present, I assume not at all. They might smooth travel wrinkles between the island and the UK, but beyond that...?

Equal access and all that...to ensure even those without the method and means for the technology etc to be catered for. We are still all in this together. 😷 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re similar to the EU ones. The Guernsey ones are worth the paper they’re written on. Except for returning to Guernsey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As mentioned before, a bit like the census. However, it seems like Government is desperate to get everyone on line and enslaved to Manx Telecom and companies like Apple. (typical socialist rubbish again!) And paperless too. Although seeing how much paperwork is still being generated by and for Governments own purposes it is astonishing how they can try to persuade the public to go digital as much as we can. Still, Govt must be right or we would not have voted them in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ballaughbiker Posted June 19, 2021 Author Share Posted June 19, 2021 Quote That’s equal access. Hmm depends on your criteria. I trust you will agree that we have got mighty used to easy border crossings in the last 25 years but that has finished. Just imagine you are an irritable border guard in Europe on a hot day, bored to tears with the relentless job of checking the vax status from those from "l'albion perfide" whose vote has already made your working life much harder. You just want to scan that effing QR/barcode on their NHS app like you have been ordered so to do. Nothing else.. then someone from the IOM (that you've never even heard of) tells you they haven't got that QR because their gov use a different system 🙄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
