TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion highlights various experiences with browser performance for applying for the Thailand Pass on an iPad. Users have reported success with both Chrome and Safari. It's noted that all browsers on iPads utilize the same WebKit engine, which may render browser choice less critical. Additionally, there are suggestions to ensure that uploads, particularly for vaccine QR codes and insurance details, are clear and complete to facilitate a smooth application process.

I watch the updates on the Thaiger news site . In their poll 59% said they were not going to bother to go till next year ... I think like most people I want to go back to Thailand soon . I think I am going to take a Pragmatic careful approach -Sit back and wait for the Bugs to be ironed out . Thailand will still be there next Year .Hope to see all my Friends in Thailand very soon .😀

Just read all the FAQs first.

And take your time to double check everything.

The important bit is all your uploads to be very clear especially the QR codes for vax. Hotel confirmation must show fully paid, name of insured, states pick-up from airport, covid test and day
***
later flow test.

Clear insurance cert showing insured person and minimum $50,000 cover for covid hospitalizations. I got mine in 4hrs.

Emirates aren't continuing their insurance for flights booked after 1st Dec. So would need to book soon. It covers your stay up to return ticket date.

no, only vaccine details, hotel booking and insurance, plus the usual address/phone/passport details.

thanks I've been gathering all the bits together before starting, hoping that it will all go smoothly. Maybe I'm reading too many horror stories of other people's experiences.

I think it won't matter. All web browsers use WebKit for iPads.
