    I keep getting reminded by BA to install this.

    It’s just a waste of time, no? All it seems to do is store stuff in one place. I have NHS COVID passes in my iPhone wallet and a drivers license in my pocket so how does it help?

    I was wondering the same. I’m getting reminders about Verifly too, but can’t see what benefit it brings since I’ve got a load of bags to check in.

    I used Verifly for Barbados in the summer and the one thing it was useful for was a sanity check on the paperwork just to give you the warm fuzzies that you’ve prepared everything. So I plan to use again. At the airport nobody scanned the QR code on the app, they just saw I had one and didn’t bother asking for any more evidence.
