An Error Occured message

Not working on iOS 12.5.6.

Not working on my iPhone 11

This problem started soon after Trump said he was taking the US out of WHO. I try to open the app & it crashes.

I hope WHO is not responding to Trump's grandiose pout (think of a 2-year-old) by denying Americans access to its app. Many Americans also see Trump as an abomination. His desertion of international cooperative efforts to improve the world is a betrayal of American values.

WHO fights on many fronts against a multitude of horrible diseases that beset our species--diseases that flourish thanks to poverty, poor education, environmental destruction, overpopulation, & governmental corruption. Readers' need to learn about those diseases & follow their numbers might load the WHO's servers to a crash point all by themselves. Then the coronavirus plops a ten-kilogram weight into an apparatus set for grams.

I hope it is server overload & not political meddling that has created the crash problem with the WHO app for iPhone 11, & I hope that the problem can soon be resolved.

Needs new version

Initially I was pleased with the app, however it has ceased to function in iOS14 on my iPhone. Still works on iOS13.7 on iPad.

It’s updated now

Lots of reviews on here saying the app doesn’t give covid19 news and updates. It is updated now and very handy and useful. Also go on their website, you can see some cool data viz. They also have a what’s chatbot. WHO has stepped up in their communication to the public.

Magnifying Glass Needed!

Want to read the latest report on Covid? Good luck! It’s not arranged for mobile. The type is so small it’s laughable. So I tried to enlarge it. All I did was wipe the front of my phone with two fingers. It doesn’t enlarge. The website is better... at least for Covid reports.
