Android and iPhone users may jealously protect their phone platform of choice, but secretly, both camps know there are some features the other phones have that theirs do not. Google is now, it seems, addressing one place it underperforms, by improving Google Wallet so it can be better at something the iPhone does brilliantly: digital tickets and boarding passes.
It now looks like the passes that slide so easily into the iPhone Wallet app could pop into Google Wallet just as smoothly. Android writerhas followed up by saying that other users have confirmed that they have been able to do the same, though this doesn’t seem to have rolled out to everyone yet.When it is more widespread, this will be a significant uptick in convenience.
With Google offering the same compatibility, Android users should be able to click on the same Apple Wallet link and add the pass to their Android phone. There have been third-party apps which could have the same effect, but an official way to do it with Google is welcome. What’s not yet clear is if Google will be able to offer the same versatility as Apple, where you can update a boarding pass if your airplane seat changes, for instance.
