I just learned there's something called a 'wallet' I need to download to use public transportation where I live because I'm supposed to download the qr code there. I screenshot the qr code found in my profile but the company insisted per email I need to use a wallet, either google or apple (and this is android).

Several questions:

why doesn't it work to screenshot the qr code?

I won't use anything google related. What f-droid or droid-ify wallet should I use?

any other workarounds i should be aware of?

I guess you may need to use some google pay alternative? If yes, afaik there is no foss option. For contactless payment with my phone I use curve, it does not require google play services, so while it's closed source, it should work on a completely degoogled phone. If you can't find a foss solution, I recommend this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imaginecurve.curve.prd
