Very nice app, and integration with other covid services is a nice move. I have a suggestion: design a 'home mode' in which user can switch off bluetooth and location when mode is selected. Whenever I come back home, I have to force stop the app, because the warning notification won't go away on switching off bluetooth and location, but keeping them on without any use drains battery.

More cons than pros. The idea is good not the implementation. A lot of the information provided is misleading or lie. Like when you are setting up the app you get the option to keep the Bluetooth always on or when your app is on. It says that you can change this in setting later. Trust me you can't. Apart from the option to let other apps access this one & to completely delete the account, there is nothing there. It consumes a lot of battery too even when you disable the bluetooth.
