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.
Google Wallet just got a lot more like Apple Wallet. Both Apple Wallet and the equivalent on Android phones, Google Wallet, are good when it comes to housing digital versions of credit and debit cards. But the iPhone version has always been stronger for passes—it’s no coincidence that it originally used to be called Passbook.
