## What is TraceTogether?

TraceTogether supports Singapore’s efforts to fight the spread of COVID-19 through community-driven contact tracing.

TraceTogether notifies you quickly if you’ve been exposed to COVID-19 through close contact with other TraceTogether users. The app allows the Ministry of Health (MOH) to give you timely care and guidance, protecting you and those around you.

The app uses Bluetooth, and your Bluetooth data is stored securely on your phone. It’ll be shared with MOH if you test positive for COVID-19, for the purpose of contact tracing. Also, all Bluetooth data stored on your phone is automatically deleted after 25 days.

TraceTogether helps us ensure that we don’t spread the virus to our loved ones unknowingly. It also helps us support the work of contact tracers and healthcare workers by combating the spread of COVID-19 together.

App functionality will cease once the outbreak ends.

TraceTogether is designed for use by people in Singapore. To register, you will need a valid NRIC, FIN, or a valid document of your current stay in Singapore.

### 1/5 — Intrusive and clunky

*2022-08-03, version 2.14.2*

Deleted 10 mins after requirement to check in at restaurants removed. Good riddance.

### 1/5 — Dictatorship

*2022-02-28, version 2.12.0*

This is crazy

### 5/5 — Great app

*2022-01-28, version 2.11.3*

This is a great app to trace movements. Important to realize that this contributes to social responsibility. We are all in this pandemic together. And we can only get out of it if we help each other by doing the right thing. Checking in and out of public venues is an important part of that social responsibility. My only suggestion is I hope TraceTogether will support Apple Watch.

### 1/5 — Slow update after serology test

*2021-12-13, version 2.11.0*

It’s been 3 days after positive serology test results and my vaccination status still has not been updated as vaccinated. It also did not send me a reminder that I needed a serology test after entering more than 30 days. So dumb and slow.
Finally updated after 5 days.

### 1/5 — Randomly failed to show vaccination status

*2021-12-07, version 2.11.0*

This app is mandated by the gov, which without it there’s no where you can go in Singapore. As important as it is, the app is inconsistent and randomly fails to show vaccination status even though you’re fully vaccinated, barring you to enter some venues when you need it the most. The app is also battery hog, you’d start to wonder what it actually do in the background and what data it collects.

### 1/5 — Vaccinated to non-vaccinated

*2021-11-26, version 2.11.0*

This app is completely worthless! After coming through immigration and proving my vaccinated status, for 4 weeks I had no issues. I’m here working so I require and vaccinated status. I had to go in to work one night on an emergency and get to the gate and voila my vaccinated status is now un-vaccinated. Explain this to me because once you take the vaccine it doesn’t seep back out of you. And help from the app seems to be non-existent. Now I’m hearing I may have to go and take a blood test to once again prove to these morons that I’m still vaccinated that nothing has changed. Poor decision in using a non-reliable app to prove you are vaccinated!

### 1/5 — Cannot check-in or out with  TT app.

*2021-10-08, version 2.9.2*

Really buggy TT app.
Initially last month able to use TT app on iOS to check in and out. Starting this month, not sure why, cannot use TT app any more. Off/on bluetooth. Restart app , all cannot work.

Restart start iPhone, finally can use TT app, ONE TIME. Then after that cannot use any more. Tried to restart bluetooth , restart TT app, cannot.

Not sure if i missed any setting or I’m the only one.

### 1/5 — Adding vaccine card as a foreigner

*2021-08-21, version 2.9*

App does not support. Singapore Govt. does not know how to put foreigner vaccine info or official vaccine card on app

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for writing in to us. We would like to inform you that in order to display your vaccination status on the App, you will need to visit a healthcare provider who will scan the cert to verify its authenticity and assist to ingest the overseas vaccination records. For more info, you may refer to http://go.gov.sg/postvacc.

### 1/5 — The Exposure Alert is Important

*2021-08-07, version 2.9*

I would like to know that a vendor or delivery person hasn’t received a possible exposure alert before allowing him/her into my premises. Removing that feature was a bad decision.

**Developer response:** Hi there, thank you for writing in and we appreciate your feedback.
We have taken note of this and will relay it to the relevant team for consideration as we build on additional feature enhancements for TraceTogether. We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2021-07-21, version 2.8*

Check ins are seamless. Records nearby devices well. Appreciate that all the Bluetooth records of nearby devices are only stored on my phone and I have the choice to upload it if I get covid (which I hope I don’t)

**Developer response:** Hi, TraceTogether was built to complement Singapore's contact tracing efforts, hence we require a local phone number in order to register an account. We are working on making the app available for other countries beyond Singapore. For more information, please see: BlueTrace.io
