Accuracy?

wmujcc

Not sure how accurate the app is. I live in a CCRC with a nursing home and independent living. I was in the main building last Friday getting my first COVID-19 vaccination within spitting distance from the part of the facility where we have had multiple positive tests and several fatalities and I never got any sort of alert from the app. Perhaps I’m expecting too much.


Doesn’t work

EDIT: No way to contact app support for further follow up. Pretty sure this app doesn’t work. I’m essential and am everywhere all day long and that includes pharmacy’s, hospitals and care homes, and never have I ever been notified of a potential exposure.


App loading my phone with spam

Wish I hadn’t signed up because now the state has my private information and I’m pretty sure they sold it because I’m getting telemarketers calling me all the sudden at all hours of the day


Great to have!!

Extremely simple to use and all of your privacy is protected. Really is a must have app if you live and/or work in Michigan. Download this app to help curb the spread of the virus, so our economy can remain open. Even more imperative that we all have these exposure notification apps with the new, more contagious variants around. Stay safe everyone ??


Exposure Last Checked isn’t updating.

I couldn’t find a way to contact the developers so hopefully they see this. I just noticed that the Exposure Last Checked hasn’t updated since 1.19.21


Needs work

I truly like the concept of this app. However it’s not functioning properlyOn iOS 14. Every day when I wake up I have a notification from his app telling me Bluetooth is turned off when in fact my Bluetooth is turned on. I don’t turn Bluetooth off. something is messed up in your code. After having the app installed for a week and waking up every morning to a dead phone I looked into the battery option in Settings. It appears this app completely drained my battery within a five hour period every single day for 6 days. I deleted the app. It’s not worth that. I wear my mask and wash my hands. I believe that sufficient.


Nice idea, poorly executed

another_mi_guy

Suffers from the necessity of having to obtain a passcode from one's local health department (who either are hard to reach or lack knowledge or training) to submit a COVID-positive test result. Also failed to notify me of an exposure from someone who also had the app. They were only able to submit their status via the app after receiving the runaround from their county health department when requesting a verification passcode.


Huge drain on battery. 37% over the past week?!?!

My battery kept dying way before bed time this past week. I finally checked the battery status in settings. Exposure notifications is consuming 37%. Michigan needs to figure this out. Work it out with Apple or whatever because this ain’t working.


A few minor bugs, but usually fine

Corona_boiiii

Works great in the background doing its thing. There is a bug that I’ve experienced where randomly I’ll get a notification that Bluetooth is off, when it is in fact on. Not an app-breaking bug, but something to fix in the near future.


Nice idea but doesn’t work as intended

Annoyed to tears

I had everyone in my household download this app when it became available. We have never gotten a notification, which in theory is great. Our whole family was exposed to COVID and four out of the five of us contracted it. My husband and daughter actually received a pin and put it into their app, and I still have not gotten an exposure notification. It’s been 5 days, which is definitely over 24 hours. So while I love the idea of the app, the sensitivity of the notification parameters is not ideal.
