An update to the NZ COVID Tracer app allowing users to add manual entries to their digital diary has been released today by the Ministry of Health.
New Zealanders can now use NZ COVID Tracer to record their visits to locations without a QR code or visits to friends and whanau, which means we can now use the app to maintain a complete – and private – record.
Fast and effective contact tracing is a key defence against the virus and will be critical to minimising the risk of spread.
Many of us will have difficulty recalling all the places we visited on any given week, adding to the time and effort required to build up an accurate picture.
