Good app

Myhomesweethome

I like the idea and functionality of this app however I wonder if this will be as affective as this was meant to be unless as many people as possible can download and use it.I kind of feel like those who don’t care too much about Covid probably it wouldn’t care to download this app anyway.


App does not work

Myrt72

Don’t waste your time. It doesn’t work the way it was designed. I keep filling in the prompts for region and other prompts only to find that it did not fill and will not work.


Some ignorant reviews here.

The app doesn’t “detect covid”, it only works if the confirmed case person has this installed and also reports it using a discrete PIN you get with your positive result.


Hope it works?

Just downloaded three days ago I’ve traveled and run a lot of errands clocked in at least 25 mile radius nothing coming up so far. Not much as far as information or user maneuverability goes.


Great app

app does NOT detect Covid

Hey... This App does NOT detect Covid. The only way you will see ANY notice is IF the person uses this app to warn us. I cannot give it any “star ratings” because I see nothing or notice any changes in the App. I have it a neutral rating so that I could post my review. Battery drainage? I see zero drainage on my cell. Make sure to check your Battery in your Settings and see where most of the drainage is coming from. Remember, this is a brand new App and most do not know about it. Let’s just hope most will use it. As for the city offices that spread Covid, noticing that this app was out there for one day or so at that time, they probably did not know about this app yet? Hopefully it was on the news or in the media to warn people? I am trying to stay positive here. The BEST way to stay safe is to WEAR A MASK! Now that is one thing I can complain about. When I am out at the park or driving by a little league game, 99.9% of the people were NOT wearing a mask! That is a shame! Stay safe everyone. We need to stick together and do what is right, because we ALL are going through this.


Better than a Vaccine!

No need for a vaccine when you have this app downloaded to your phone!


How it works 101

Ryan from MI

Basically 2 phones have to have the app installed. If one persons tests positive AND reports it in the app AND your phone was within 6 feet for at least 15 minutes, then your app would provide you a notification. If the person who tests positive DOES NOT share the results in their app, your app would NOT provide you a notification. Be courteous to others and report positive test results in the app.


Trace and stop the spread of covid

Glad to see this is available. I think there needs to be an increased campaign so everyone is aware and will make it more effective. Everyone living and traveling in Michigan should have this app activated to help with the test and trace and eventually the elimination of covid!!


Useless

Kmamasan

I like the idea . But the fact that this app relies completely on self reporting and given the delays in reporting test results, this fall far short of being an effective tool. By the time you actually get your test result, if you’re one of the VERY FEW people that have downloaded this app , the effectiveness goes out the window . This app will not track your movements from 3 or 4 or more days ago to tell you that you were in close contact with someone who finally got their result and then decided to go ahead and report through this app.
