COVID Alert PA Notification App
COVID Alert PA is a free mobile app using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology and the Exposure Notification System developed by Apple and Google. Features include:
• Interactive COVID-19 symptom checker
• Opt-in for alerts for potential exposures to the virus
• Updates on the latest public health data about COVID-19 in PA
• Advice for what to do if you have a potential exposure to COVID-19
COVID Alert PA protects both privacy and personal information. The app does not use GPS, location services, or any movement or geographical information. It will never collect, transmit, or store personal information. It is completely anonymous.
Now here is where I ask for your help: the app is an effective new tool, but we need your help getting it in the hands of Pennsylvanians. The first 72 hours after launch are the most important. We need help getting the word out – and downloads up – between today and Friday (Sept. 25). Will you add your phone to the fight?
Here are links where you can download it today:
Google play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gov.pa.covidtracker
Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/covid-alert-pennsylvania/id152712551
