Mobile boarding passes now work on multi-passenger itineraries

I checked in for my flight today and returned to the "Manage Trips" screen on my iPhone and noticed a "view boarding pass" option. Sure enough, the mobile boarding pass appeared. I am on the same confirmation number with 2 other people.

Excellent development. So, how does it work? Is each passenger sent their own boarding pass?

It doesn't look like the website has been updated yet.

Are all passengers eligible to use a mobile boarding pass?
All passengers that are eligible to obtain a printed boarding pass should be able to utilize the mobile boarding pass option. However, passengers traveling on certain types of fares may not be eligible. Infants, unaccompanied minors, individuals traveling on Senior Fares that need to be age verified, nonrevenue passengers, those traveling on multi-passenger itineraries, and Military Fares are not eligible to receive a mobile boarding pass.

I think it's just a quirk. I'm the only one out of the three of us who had the app. It just had the option to view the boarding pass and then I was able to both receive a text message and an email with a link to it. Nothing appeared on the website to send the text or email. It only worked on the app, not the website. I just received my boarding pass.

Edit: I should add that it didn't give me the option when I checked in, I just went back to the app later and "View boarding pass" showed up.
