    The one thing I hope Apple has added to the pass framework is the ability to semantically define a barcode area.

    This would enable them to finally have Wallet show ONLY that rectangle at a suddenly blinding brightness level (on HDR displays) for the scanner, rather than cranking up the entire screen.

      Every time I get blinded by this I wonder if it's really necessary at all...I can turn the brightness up myself if the QR code doesn't scan.

        Well, you're one person. How about the other eight billion people on the planet?

        Everyone is not you.
