Description

From the listing uploaded by “catappult”.

What is it? This app is a viewer for passes - a pass could be a e.g. boarding-pass for your next flight, a coupon for a nice hot beverage on the destination, a movie ticket, a membership card - there are a lot of possibilities. Basically it is a replacement for a piece of paper or plastic you would normally have to carry with you - so lets save some trees and reduce waste! Also this app is Free-Software - Free not only as in "Free Beer" - but more as in Richard Stallmans Concept of Free and Open Software for a better World. How does it work? There are so called espass or pkpass files - you can open them with this app - e.g. when you receive them via email or get an Download-option. The most important content is the BarCode ( QR , AZTEC & PDF417which authorizes you most of the time - but it also has other interesting content like a description - often a time ( that you now can add to your calendar ) - often also locations ( to give you directions ) - just try It out! The app is offline usable once you downloaded the pass! History I stumbled upon Passbook files when i received my ticket for the 29c3 - I liked the Idea - but there was no Android App which was working for me. I saw that the implementation is quite easy ( just a zip container with json and images ) - The first version was build very quick & was working for me ( got entry to 29C3 ) - In the following year I have not worked on this app much as I had no real use-cases but there where a lot of users downloading the app and I fixed processing of some passes that where send to me ( some passes contain really broken json .. ) One year later - just before the 30C3 - I came to work a bit on this app again - for 2 reasons: - a friend of mine is very into this whole BTLE thing and location beacon / context aware thing could be interesting for Passbook - but nothing ready yet - I got a mail from a Luis Torrecilla - a very nice designer who did a great redesign This all was leading to PassAndroid - a completely new version - with a new look and new functions ( sorting and adding to calendar alongside pull to refresh a navigation drawer and contextual ActionBar menu ) Passes that work Air Berlin Air Canada Air Europa Aegean Airlines Austrian Airlines (http://www.austrian.com) Brussels Airlines Czech Airlines Cathay Pacific Chaos Events (29c3 30c3 31c3 32c3 33c3 34c3) Cineworld in Middlesborough UK Cinecitta in Nuremberg Cineplex-Kinos Emirates airlines Eventim Eurowings Lufthansa German Wings Iberia Swiss Virgin Australia Virgin Atlantic cleartrip ( tested with IRCTC - Indian Railway ) Porter Airlines ( tested in North America ) TAM Airlines TUI-Fly Norwegian Airlines LAN Peru Qantas Saudi Arabian Airlines entrada cine ( entradas.com ) Empire Theatres Tickets owl ticket Kinépolis UCI Kinowelt Kinepolis cinemas in Belgium renfe chaos communication congress chaos communication camp TAP (Portugal) Theatre Aurora (Аврора) on Nevsky (на Невском) Formula Kino Galeria (Формула кино Галерия) these are only some I know of - please drop me an email or post into the community about the ones you know that work More info about espass: http://espass.it Source Code / Issues both on github: https://github.com/ligi/PassAndroid/ License GPLv3

PassAndroid Passbook viewer APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the PassAndroid Passbook viewer APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 55450af5e257540fff0de122e0ed2e0f.
