What a relief. My awful workaround was photos of all my membership barcodes labeled with a sharpie so that I can search "Gym" or "Library" or whatever to pull them up from OCR indexing.

Pass2U Wallet works great, but like many apps, it really should just be a feature to begin with.

You can also make passes for other people and send them / share them.

Looks like someone else recommended a competitor Pass4 Wallet as well, may need to go compare.

I've been using Pass4Wallet for the last few years to create Wallet entries for local clubs I'm apart of.

It's actually better than native passes in some cases because you can add custom info to the entry, like a gate code. It's really flexible in terms of barcodes, QR codes, etc as well.

Great app I'll probably continue using, I'm not confident Apple will allow the amount of customizability it allows.

Just get https://supercardsapp.com/ and be done with it. It's most likely way better than the new Apple Wallet

I've got a Photos album called Keys.

There's many third party apps that can already create passes based on pictures. They are just adding that feature to the OS which is great of course but it has already been possible for a long time, except that there's one more step of downloading an app...but should still be quicker than searching your library every time.

I usually just put things like that in an album

Why is that awful? Sounds simple to me.
