"..NHS app doesn't record the booster jab..."
But it does -- It appears here - NHS app/Gp health record/consultations and events. Not 'scannable', but you could show the page to anyone interested...

Yes, it does but I can't imagine for one minute this will be acceptable by border control staff. I think the only hope is that the NHS app will be updated but I'm not holding my breath

@Alan1974, border staff aren’t interested in apps. A printout with details of your vaccination is fine. I’m sure the app will be updated soon, but you’re still generally easier to process travelling with a printed document anyway.
It’s not worrying, it’s to encourage a vaccine hesitant nation to get their boosters.

Yes, I understand the motive behind this and I hope you're right but I won't hold breath on getting the App updated any time soon.

@munich_irish, at least if they do that they will have boosters on the app

The app is being updated to take account of many people now receiving more than two jabs. I was told in early October that it would take a maximum of 10 weeks so it should certainly be done my mid-late December at the latest.
My vaccination status is all over the place due to being on the novavax trial so I get updated on these kind of things.

Agreed. The border policeman at Munich Airport was more than happy with my printed copy he didn’t scan anything just looked at it carefully. Same in a restaurant yesterday, on entry the lady’s scanner wouldn’t work so she just had sight of the dose 2 of 2 on my pass in my Apple Wallet and that was fine. I had a paper version in my purse just in case she wanted it. They are not idiots and perfectly sensible in my experience.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

The app will definitely be updated with the booster. People in the government like skiing and travelling too. I’m not worried about it in the slightest. Especially as my booster shows in my Patient Access App anyhow and I could print that out if I wanted to. Like I said people don’t seem to be overly fussed with scanning the QR codes as long as they see some sort of evidence. Not so far anyway. This is Austria and Germany though I can’t speak for elsewhere!

Just jumping in here. I’m due to arrive in Salzburg on the 11th December, that is exactly 271 days after my second vaccine. I had my booster in September, but it’s not on the app yet. I have paper copies of my vaccination letters from work ( NHS hospital) to my GP. I’m sure the app will update at sometime, but not confident when. Hopefully paper copies will be enough.

You know it makes sense.

Paper copies are fine in Austria.

@Yorksboy, You can get the details of your booster via the app. It's in your GP Health record, under consultations and events. Bit of a faff finding it if you happen to have a lot of entries, but there if you ever need it.
If you load your code into one of the EU apps, then the Tac and Green pass show the date of your vaccines, the CH one shows as "valid with an identity document", but no dates. All of these are supposedly acceptable throughout the EU.
Worth downloading as options.

Mine is in the Medicines section (acute) in either the NHS app or the Patient Access app.

@brianatab, yes I have the GP entry from my notes. However, (and this is my point) these entries do not have a QR code. This means you cannot load the booster into the various EU apps. Unless anyone knows differently?

Correct.
However, there is no need to mess about with other countries' apps. If you have the code in the NHS app, use that. If you don't, in the case of Austria anyway, print out whatever confirmation you do have.

Hopefully the NHS app will be updated in time - it is more convenient than loads of paper. Thanks everyone.

I'm sure it will be. However, for anyone flying, it is faster to hand over printouts of relevant documents than to keep switching between phone apps. Also, good as a backup generally if you have a phone with a dodgy battery when it gets a bit cold.

I’ve only got one piece of paper though, folded up and in my purse. I need that with me anyway so it’s not as if you need a lever arch file full of the stuff, don’t worry.

Definitely, and unless they point the scanner just so it doesn’t scan anyway! Mine worked just now outside a pub before I went in using my pass in my Apple Wallet but that was the first time it worked. Otherwise I’ve got the paper one just one piece of A4 in my purse-simple.
