Plus access to public places via QR codes verifying you have been vaccinated / recently tested negative.

But you are the one providing the QR code in that case so you can normally just print it out or get a card sent to you.

You don't need a phone just to display an image...

I've encountered a few apps where the QR codes are only valid for a few minutes and rotate. For your vaccine status it's probably not an issue but using QR codes to auth yourself for payments or access will probably be a no-go eventually.
