So I know to de-install and re-install the app, and yes, "Boarding pass Options" is replaced with a more helpful "Check-in Now". But then I forgot the second thing that isn't working, namely the Simplified Check-in screen. That just hangs the app. Re-enter the app and I can do the More/Manage My Booking but I'm back to "Boarding Pass Options". Had I gone through the standard OLCI screens then it normally works ok, at least until the next flight.

Re-install the App a second time - and yes I can "Get boarding pass" and then "Show boarding pass" works fine. But I will probably need to de-install, re-install before my next flight

This degree of wrestling with BA's IT has not improved for several months, and has wrecked the BA App, which was generally very reliable at OLCI.
this has resolved the issue of displaying the wrong flight details on the boarding pass that we started seeing about a year ago

And yes, having re installed the app on friday to get the outbound bp, i had to reinstall the app again last night to get my return boarding pass.

Next flight is feb 1st, i will be interested to see what happens
