Which no-one carries around with them.

Mine is in my wallet which lives in the hip pocket of my trousers.

Same here...

Not being a heavy phone user, I was quite happy with the S4. Decent camera etc and battery life.

All I wanted was to run the NHS app on it (if we do need this as a vaccination passport), and now I've installed the later OS I can.

And here, but only since the plastic credit-card sized licences replaced the first part of the licence.

In the days when both parts of the driving licence were paper documents, I didn't carry either part with me.

yes

Wasn't there a rumour that covid passports will appear in the "NHS App" that does your prescription tracking etc, rather than in the "NHS covid app" which just does the exposure notification?

[Robin]

I don't know if what Grant Schapps says ranks above or below a rumour these days but he told Sky News "we're working on an application...it will be an NHS app that is used for people when they book appointments with the NHS and so on"

[Chris Green]

... but there isn't just one "NHS App" is there? There seem to be several commercial enterprises who provide access to one's NHS records and facilities.

[Robin]

While there are several commercial apps I think there is only one from NHS digital

(plus no doubt an Apple version)

[Dave Plowman (News]

Correct. But neither ran on the old OS5.

That sounds not dissimilar to our "producer" system where you nominate a police station where you have to take your documents within 7 days.
