## What is VaxiCode?

VaxiCode is the official application from the gouvernement du Québec to allow citizens to securely record their proof of vaccination containing a QR code.

VaxiCode allows citizens to register multiple proofs of vaccination containing a QR code, as well as verify the contents of each of the QR codes.

With VaxiCode, users can also know their protection status from COVID-19, through an interpretation of their proof of vaccination.

The proof of vaccination saved in VaxiCode is encrypted on the device and is not transmitted to anyone. Only a presentation of the QR code allows the user to communicate their proof of vaccination to a third party.

No usage analytics are collected by VaxiCode.

VaxiCode requires a weekly update, via the Internet, of the vaccine protection rules. The app asks for user consent before downloading new rules. The only communication with the Internet by VaxiCode takes place when checking the availability of these updates.

VaxiCode requires at least an iPhone, or iPod touch on iOS 11 or newer. Access to the camera is required to read QR codes of proof of vaccination, or access to the phone's photo library to import the image of proof of vaccination.

## Key features

- Store multiple vaccination QR codes

### 5/5 — Hi

*2022-02-06, version 1.3*

thanks to Quebec for making it easy to now go into stores and eat out with this!!! it functions as it should and is simple

### 5/5 — Work well

*2022-01-25, version 1.2.1*

Latest version finally add connection to the wallet.

### 1/5 — Not usable for non Quebec citizens

*2021-09-24, version 1.0.5*

Downloaded this to use while visiting Montreal because it has become a requirement but as a foreigner, the app does not scan my vaccine card nor can I enter my health insurance information.

### 5/5 — 10/10

*2021-08-30, version 1.0.2*

This app bumps

### 2/5 — Works ok

*2021-08-28, version 1.0.1*

Easy enough to use, but the fact that it jumps your brightness to 100% once after each app restart the first time you open your proof of vaccination is annoying. Either drop the brightness change or switch it back after exiting the QR code screen.

### 1/5 — Terrible design

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.1*

It should automatically download the QR code when it sends you to the website. Instead you have to print it out and then scan it? Silly.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.1*

App freezes and doesn’t work.

**Developer response:** Hello,
Please follow these steps to resolve the problem: 
1. Make sure that the device is connected to the Internet.
2. Check if an update should be done.
3. Delete and download the application again.
If the problem persists, do not hesitate to call us at 1 877 644-4545. We will be happy to assist you.

### 5/5 — Perfect passport app

*2021-08-25, version 1.0.1*

Super easy to provision. Thank you Quebec and Canada for serving your citizens with duty and consideration. This app reflects the power of science to solve our problems.

### 1/5 — Invasion of privacy potential

*2021-08-25, version 1.0*

Proven over and over, app developers have ways around Apple’s privacy settings. What is the need for this app if I can just carry the paper barcode? Laminated paper works just fine.

**Developer response:** Hello Kyle,

Access to the camera is required to read the QR codes of the proof of vaccination, or access to the photo gallery to import the image of the proof of vaccination. Rest assured, your personal information is protected. When you save a proof of vaccination in VaxiCode, it is stored in an encrypted way. VaxiCode does not communicate with the Internet and the proof never leaves the application, which acts as a secure wallet. As stated in our policy, we only collect the following information:
- Last name and first name
- Date of birth
- List of vaccines administered
- Vaccination dates
- Dates of blood collection
- Last positive result for COVID-19.

The information you provide in this application remains your property and does not leave the internal storage of your smartphone.
