NZ COVID Tracer

This is the repository for the NZ COVID Tracer app.

NZ COVID Tracer is a Ministry of Health app that allows you to create a digital diary of places you visit by scanning the official QR codes. This gives contact tracers a headstart with identifying anyone who may have been exposed to COVID-19 so we can quickly break the chain of transmission.

You can download the app for:

Android from the Google Play Store
iPhone/iOS from the App Store
