To date the COVIDSafe app has appeared to be a white elephant, with millions of dollars invested in building the app and marketing it yet no proven cases of positive use. 9News

Coronavirus: The 'appalling' reasons Victorians are flouting restrictions include a man who drove hundreds of kilometres 'to get a Big Mac'It's more likely these were contacts listed at Mounties - where patrons are required to register for entry - and thus they were contact and asked to get tested.Contact between positive cases is believed to have occurred at Mounties in Mount Pritchard.

Additionally, to ensure the app is most effective on iPhones, Apple need to open up their new Bluetooth interface to the Australian Government app, separate to the integration of contact tracing into the Google and Apple "exposure notification" framework.

I got rid of this stupid app ages ago. Every time I opened my phone it annoyed me. It had to go. Think about it , how can a phone detect a virus. Dream on.

Yes it can be put in the same category as 'schools are safe but numbers will rise.'

More incompetent corruption from Morrison

App tracing is going to be pretty patchy if only 25% of people have it, don't you think? Victorians need to use app tracing more because manual tracing is taking a week+ which is uselessly slow

Why hasn’t ScottMorrisonMP come out and said it..he needs to admit he stuffed up

The money went straight into the pockets of the LNP ministers who own the company. Very much like what happened with paladin

ScoMo and government! We didn't vote you in to rely on an app to mind the state of affairs while you go on holidays, we voted you in to work in the Parliament and come up with something that works! Are we asking for too much?

LesStonehouse And it's been linked to Anus Taylor.

Useless

LesStonehouse Wow!!! All 2 of them ay?

LesStonehouse the other white elephant with no positive use is tim smith

LesStonehouse Yes, if it worked how many fewer cases would Victoria have, has anyone asked Scomo?

Politicians don’t talk about the app, so do we still use it?

LesStonehouse As expected..

kick backs for you and kick backs for you

This app is a joke. Until now no one has taken responsibility for this.
