I'm an "older person" who is a little challenged by the incredible complexity and feature rich nature of the many devices we have today. I'll be travelling in Europe in a few days and some people have suggested that using my iPhone Wallet would be advantageous. I have already entered my credit card and debit card - that was straightforward. But there is a banner on the main wallet screen that seems to suggest that I need to download a variety of apps to use the wallet for things other than payment, like airline boarding passes, tickets, etc.
I've tried doing a quick Google search but things aren't clear. Do I need to have an app installed for whatever company or organization in order to place an item in the wallet. For example, if I want to put Air Canada boarding passes in my wallet, do I need to have the Air Canada app? The same with, say, loyalty cards for my grocery store, or my health insurance card, etc, etc?
For a long time, I never used apple wallet and didn't connect with my debit card. Whenever I made a rare in-app purchase I just used an apple gift card. I recently changed that because it just got annoying.
Anyway, I made an in app purchase in late April and I still haven't been charged yet. Do I have to somehow pay manually or will it eventually just charge my debit card? I was under the impression that it was the latter, but I feel like it should have charged me by now.
