As an aside, I find it really sad that, having a de-Googled Anroid phone, it's actually easier for me to download the Apple Wallet .pkpass files

Anything to do with Google Wallet passes just forwards me to a Google login page.

The Google Wallet app will let you import any pkpass file. The trouble is that most websites that support the format will only offer them for download of you're coming from an iPhone.

Google's format also has a download option but that format doesn't work well for desktop users, so Google prefers to import via the web.

One annoyance I've faced is that Apple Wallet will not accept a downloaded file, or a file transferred from another app. You must click a link in Safari or it will refuse to load the damn pass.

I'm surprised how terrible all of these major wallet apps are at handling the slightest of edge cases.

Condor airlines has an "open with Google wallet" link, that doesn't work because I don't have that app. .pkpass files just work with my foss wallet

A curious example of a compatibility feature ending up having a much better experience than the thing that they clearly want you to do. Hopefully some Google PM doesn't see this comment and ruin things…
