Apple
introduced Passbook,
its solution for keeping your tickets, passes, and membership cards organized
in iOS 6. Here's what you need to know
When
you launch Passbook for the first time, it will more than likely be empty.
There will be a link that takes you to the App Store to help you find apps with
Passbook integration.
Adding
a Pass is easy. When you open the Pass, no matter what the source is, you're
able to preview it. There's a front and back, both of which contain information
about the Pass. If you're satisfied with the information on the Pass, tap
on Add.
You'll
see a fancy animation and the Pass will vanish from your screen. You can open
the Passbook app and view any Passes you have added. Switching between them is
as simple as tapping, or swiping to the respective Pass. Depending on how the
merchant uses Passbook, you may not even have to go into Passbook to have your
Pass scanned.
• On
the back of some Passes you'll notice there are options. Some Passes will ask
for permission to monitor your location, others will ask for permission to use background
data for automatic updates. Leaving the option for a Pass to appear in a lock
screen will allow Passes triggered by your location or at a specific time to
show up without you doing anything.
Passes
you allow to update automatically will alert you to any important changes. For
example, a boarding pass for a flight where your gate has changed will update
in the background and push the new information to your lock screen, alerting
you of the change.
Once
you're done with a card, you can view the back side of it and tap on the Trash
Can button.
Passbook
is the one feature added to iOS 6 whose success completely relies on developers
and merchants implementing it.
