Apple and Google team up to notify you if you've been exposed to Coronavirus
Apple and Google have teamed up
to develop push notifications that let Android and iOS users know if they might
have been exposed to COVID-19.
The companies announced the news on Tuesday and the effort is called Exposure Notifications Express. It's an opt-in-based system that lets your local public health agency alert you to potential coronavirus exposure via a notice on your smartphone. It will also allow the agency to guide residents on actions to take if they've been exposed, according to Apple and Google.
