NHS app updated to ‘fix’ phantom messages – Yahoo News Australia
People will still see alerts but will now get a follow-up message telling them to ignore it.
The NHS Covid-19 app has been updated to fix an issue with confusing alerts that pop up suggesting exposure to the virus and then disappear.
Users have complained that the notifications are scary and confusing.
In fact, the messages are a default privacy notification from either Apple or Google, which provide the underlying contact-tracing technology.
The alerts will still appear, but now a follow-up message from the government will tell people to ignore them.
