Does Android not have a "wallet" feature? My gym does the app-based QR code for entry, but on Apple, I just add that app to my wallet and the QR appears there, I only need to access the app proper to check class and pool schedules.

I figured was much, I was just surprised that wasn't an option for this app/gym... I guess their being actively malicious in making members use the full app for entry...
