Thanks, that's actually the one I'm using but I mistakenly called it "Android Pass" originally. I've edited my post now to reflect this correction. Unfortuantely, at least in the only 2 situations I've ever tried to use a wallet which was now twice in days, I was receiving emails from organisations, one with an auto club membership digital card and one with a ticket to an event, on both occasions, I was given a link to add to my google wallet or a link to add my apple wallet and neither link actually leads to a pkpass file or any downloadable file. In the case of one of them at least I saw it links to some unrelated company that I guess they teamed up with for distributing these passes called urban air ship. I assume if you go ahead an sign-in it eventually goes on to give you a pkpass file or something similar that a google wallet app deals with but I obviously wasn't going to do that. I was wondering if there was any commonly known way to just get the pkpass file from links like those since both seemed to work in much the same way and I assume somewhere at the end of the hoops you jump through you get an actual file.
The apple wallet link works for me usually.
that's what I'd hoped, and was the first thing I tried, but it just at some point figured out I was on android and redirected to a google sign-in. On desktop it was some useless link that essentially brought me back to the page where the link to add to apple wallet started on.
it may be because of the browser's user agent. Changing that may help, to make of believe that you are on an apple device
