How to Enable Passbook in iOS 6 Beta

These are instructions on how to enable and use Passbook in the iOS 6 beta.

In order to use the Passbook you must add a pass; otherwise, you'll only see a generic welcome screen.

Step One
Using your device, navigate to http://www.passsource.com, a site that was created by Kudit to help generate passes.


Tap to select a pass you would like to generate.

Step Two
Input the details required for the pass. Note: Some pass types will let you fully customize the pass with everything from location to barcode to color.

Press the Create button once you've entered all the pass information.

So now I do have a pass -- but how can I remove it?

Found out how: tap on the tiny 'i' icon on the right button. You'll be shown the backside where you can delete it.

It does work on Beta 2 but requires a slight workaround. 1. Install iUnarchive Lite from the App Store 2. Use PassSource.com as normal to generate a pass. When the pass is displayed onscreen, Open In "iUnarchive Lite" 3. Say "No" to unpacking the archive 4. Click the Sharing icon and select "Email file" and send it to yourself 5. Open "Mail" and view the email you just sent to yourself. 6. Click the "Card" attachment and then "Add" This also works for passes you have updated through PassSource.com No need to thank me. DH

same issue here. Can not open it with Passport. I only get GooReader and Airshare to open it.

Doesn't work for me. Either those r not the right steps or it just works for some people.
