Verify Ontario gives businesses and organizations a quick, easy and secure way to scan and confirm that that a visitor’s enhanced vaccine certificate with official QR code meets the Ontario requirements for entry.

The app scans the QR code on an Ontario government-issued vaccine certificate.

After scanning a QR code, the business or organization will see: a green checkmark screen which means verified, yellow warning screen which means there is a problem, a grey timeout screen which means a QR code could not be read, or a red “X” screen, which means the vaccine certificate is invalid.

SECURE AND PRIVACY PROTECTING

A verification result displays onscreen for 30 seconds, then is deleted.

The app does not request a user’s specific location, or collect any information that links specific locations, visitors, or businesses to each other.

To help evaluate and improve the app, only metrics such as total number of scans, and the aggregate number of valid, invalid, or warning results are collected.

INTERNET NOT REQUIRED TO SCAN

The app’s scanning feature works without an internet connection. Verify Ontario will need to periodically connect to the internet to update vaccine or entry requirements. You can also update manually on the settings and information page.

DEVICE PERMISSIONS AND COMPATIBILITY

The app requires camera access and requests camera access permission on first use.
