I'm repeatedly surprised by how much a kiosk device
cellphones are. Everything goes through an app. Simply
buying tickets to the circus is involving Ticketmaster and
Google. And still one doesn't actually have the tickets.
Accessing the "ticket" requires contacting one of those
companies. I guess I'd expected there to be an app that
would represent personal storage on the cellphone. Then
the tickets would be some kind of digitally signed file. Though
I suppose that also has limitations. If it were done that way
then losing the cellphone would mean losing the tickets.
Of course I can't speak for this specific scenario (US, Ticketmaster),
but in general, it's *not* "Everything goes through an app.", it *can*
be done via an app, but doesn't have to.
I have yet have to see a case where you can buy a ticket via a website
- i.e. also from a computer (or tablet) - where the ticket can not be
shown (at check-in) in printed form or as a screenshot.
So all this is about *more* flexibility, not less.
In another response, you said: "But when I opened the email I realized
the images were only remote links.". Assuming you meant images of the
ticket(s), you could have made screenshots of the images and she could
have put those screenshots on her phone (or printed them out).
