In case you have missed some of Apple’s latest “ground breaking features” let me introduce you to Passbook. Apple’s new iOS 6 added an application called Passbook that centralizes and manages your mobile tickets, loyalty cards, and coupons. Essentially it just stores a few pieces of information along with a QRCode or barcode in a JSON file which is shown by Apple’s Passbook app. This information is usually passed along in emails as a PKPass standard file and is pretty easy to parse. Passbook on iOS just shows this information in a visually appealing manner. Magic right?
A little bit back Attido Mobile brought their PassWallet app to Android which allowed you to open these same PKPass files on your phone. Now BBNews.pl noticed that PassWallet is also available for BlackBerry smartphones. I have not had a chance to try it out myself but if this sort of thing interests you check out PassWallet free in App World.
