Owned and run by the NHS, the NHS App is a simple and secure way to access a range of NHS services on your smartphone or tablet. Account verification is done centrally and you don’t need a password from your GP surgery.
From 17th May 2021, patients will be able to use the app to show their Covid vaccination status.
