The app can store all kinds of documents, from state identification to concert tickets. One of Wallet\u2019s most convenient functions is its ability to store transit passes, including airline boarding passes. Not every airline supports Google Wallet \u2014 but now, a major holdout has hopped on the bandwagon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.aa.com\/news\/news-details\/2025\/Travel-reinvented-Where-innovation-meets-care-MKG-OTH-10\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">American Airlines<\/a> has announced that Android users can now add the airline\u2019s boarding passes to Google Wallet, joining other major US lines like Delta and United in offering Wallet support. American had previously only supported Apple Wallet.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/andauth.co\/AAGooglePreferredSource\" class=\"e_Wn\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\"><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Ug\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\"  alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To add a boarding pass to Google Wallet, you\u2019ll need to tap the\u00a0Add to Google Wallet button in your confirmation email or on the web version of the boarding pass. You\u2019ve always been able to save digital American Airlines boarding passes as screenshots (and you still can, if you prefer), but passes added directly to Google Wallet are updated automatically in case your gate or departure time changes.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve flown on American a lot over the past few years, and I\u2019ve always been mildly annoyed that I couldn\u2019t add boarding passes directly to Wallet. Wallet support is hardly a make-or-break factor when choosing an airline to fly, but it\u2019s a nice bonus.<\/p>\n<p>Do you add your boarding passes to Google Wallet?
