Is your vaccine visible on the NHS app?

Mine (from a few months ago) is not. Just wondering if that's a common issue?

Just checked, mine is still there!

Shakirasma · 26/06/2021 12:54

Mine is. Are you looking at the right app? It's not the covid tracing app.

Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 12:54

I download the app a few weeks ago. Mine has never been there.

Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 12:55

Yes, the NHS app. I didn't download the tracing app.

How strange, mine is there plus the PCR tests I've had to take, all negative.

Maybe contact your GP see if they can shed any light.

noblegiraffe · 26/06/2021 12:57

I had some issues with it linking to my medical records, have you got any medical info on there or is it just the vaccine missing?

Shapesorted · 26/06/2021 12:58

Mine is there.

Postdatedpandemic · 26/06/2021 13:00

Mine are on the NHS app.

The app was probably the most arduous app I have ever had the misfortune to have to download. Took about 5 hours all in Shock

Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 13:03

Honestly, I don't want to click on the medical record section as my GP practice is of the 'it's all in your head' sort, which i'm pretty sure is plastered all over my notes and I know it will piss the hell out of me if I read it. But my repeat prescriptions are fully visible.

It doesn't go into that much detail, it's just a list of medications, tests, conditions etc. No commentary at all.

Etulosba · 26/06/2021 13:09

Both mine were on there within few days.

Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 13:12

Ok, I clicked and at the top it says 'ask your GP surgery for access to your coded record etc etc'

Then it shows my name, address, dob, allergies and medicines, but no visible health conditions.

So does that sound like I would need to contact them to be able to see the vaccine(s) in the future?

NHS app
Lots of log in faff
Home page
Get you NHS covid pass

Did you give consent for everything they asked?

Postdatedpandemic · 26/06/2021 13:15

You have to contact your GP to get them to flick the switch on your details their end.

Covid stuff should be there now though.

Where did you have the jab done?
Was it at the GPs?

Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 13:16

Yes, postdated. I click on 'event trials' and it tells me I do not have a covid pass. I then click on 'travel' and it shows a yellow box saying 'no covid-19 records found'.

OP posts:
Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 13:16

Yes, at my GP practice.

Your GP may be a bit slack at updating things their end.

Ask for access to your records and politely enquire if they have uploaded your covid jab.

MaloInAnAppleTree · 26/06/2021 13:18

If you have a tricky relationship with your GP surgery maybe see if 119 can help.

If it’s got your medication right then it should show your vaccinations.

Topseyt · 26/06/2021 13:20

Mine is there. NHS app, Not NHS Covid 19 (for t & t).

You may need to call the surgery to ask if they need to make it available. I had already done that some time ago because I wanted to use the Patient Access system so perhaps that is why? However, DH has never used Patient Access and never arranged this and he was able to set up access on the NHS App. I think it asks for proof of identity. We linked to our driving licences. Or did we scan them in? I can't remember, but it worked anyway.

Theforest · 26/06/2021 13:25

Mine isnt on there either. But I only had second this week, so not sure it I am classed as fully vaccinated until 2 weeks after.

LotsOfTrees · 26/06/2021 13:27

I had issues with mine because the details didn’t get uploaded. You might need to go back to the place you got your vaccine or to the reception of your GP surgery with your vaccination card to ensure the details get uploaded to the system.

Donatella · 26/06/2021 13:47

My vaccines also show in my medications record, are yours listed there?

stooped · 26/06/2021 13:48

Both mine appeared within 3 hours. Frankly DH and I were surprised at the NHS app. It seems strangely efficient for a government initiative...

Miiaaoow · 26/06/2021 13:52

Not in my medications record either.

Sigh. My 2nd is coming up soon, so I will call 119 after that.

Mine is there with QR code. I seem to remember having to enable it but can't remember the details. Are you in England? I don't think this function is enabled in the other nations.
