I downloaded America’s first coronavirus exposure app. You should too. – The Washington Post
Bluetooth exposure-notification apps like Virginia’s Covidwise aren’t much of a privacy risk. But we won’t know if they’re useful until many more people try them.
For the past week and a half, 35 Washington Post staff members have been helping me test Americas first exposure-notification app using technology from Apple and Google. Its called Covidwise, and works in the state of Virginia. Made by state health departments, similar apps are also now available in North Dakota (Care19 Alert), Wyoming (also called Care19 Alert), and Alabama (Guidesafe). In total, 20 states and territories are developing apps that will cover nearly half the U.S. population.
