Covid Alert SA is an Android application developed during the caronavirus pandemic. It sends users a notification if they have been in close contact with a person with positive COVID 19 test.
Social contacts
The main purpose of the mobile app is to slow down the spread of coronavirus infection in South Africa. Users have a chance to control close contact with a sick person so that they can observe quarantine in the coming days and prevent the spread of the virus.
The utility works in conjunction with the Bluetooth option. When you anonymously note that you are sick with the caronovirus, the app sends notifications to those devices that were near you. In this way, the technology keeps the country safe from the spread of the disease.
In addition to contact notifications, you get information on how to cope with illness. Users explore content about symptoms and monitor their health.
