RE: Vaxination Card In Apple Wallet in Canada?

Hello Fazil and fellow Canadians, OK, I just updated to iOS 15.1 today and did a Google search on "Adding vaccination passport to Apple Wallet". I found a number of articles, but since I know the website iPhoneInCanada often has very good information, I looked to see if they had something on

Melanie, don't forget that if you want to try the Beam first that is entirely your choice and you have a full 6 weeks + 3 days to do so and if you find that there is an issue with the sound lagging which probably would take a lot less than 6 weeks to discover, just call Sonos and get them to

The Beam is a smaller soundbar, the item you are describing is the Playbase which came out around the same time or maybe a bit after the original Playbar and it does not look like Sonos is updating this, i.e. that they are releasing a Sonos Base or whatever they would call it which then would

The older sonos app states it is for older equipment, the Sonos 2 is for the newer equipment and both average 4-1/2 stars. To average 4-1/2 stars you have to have a heck of a lot more positive than negative reviews Did you look at the age of the negative reviews? If they were recent, I would
