The TousAntiCovid application has just been updated and includes an option to display the Health Pass more quickly using a pinned widget on the home screen of your iPhone or Android smartphone.
Since August 9, the Health Pass has become mandatory to access cafes, bars, restaurants, retirement homes and long-distance transport. This Health Pass, which takes the form of a QR Code, is used to prove that you have a complete vaccination schedule or that you have a negative PCR test. To present it, you can either present your vaccination certificate or your PCR test result on which the famous QR Code is displayed. It is also possible to get rid of paper and find them in electronic form directly in the TousAntiCovid application on Android and iOS.
The application has just been updated and offers an option to display this QR Code more quickly, without having to open it and access the dedicated digital notebook. This update, in addition to displaying the QR Code directly on Apple Watch, allows you to configure on Android as well as on iOS, a widget to display the QR Code on the main screen of your smartphone. Here’s how.
