Help prevent COVID-19 with TraceSocialPH

The mobile app is designed and developed to support existing national efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19 via social distancing. TraceSocialPH uses Bluetooth signals to determine and estimate the number of people within 2 to 5 meters from you.

Your privacy is safe with the app as it does not collect any data from you such as location, phone numbers, and other information. It does not store any data about phones near you as well. In addition, it does not need an internet connection as well as GPS to work. All it needs is Bluetooth and you are good to go. 

The next step for the app is an official way of Contact Tracing to trace people possibly exposed to the COVID-19. However,  this will need to be collaborated with the health department to make it official and to make data collection legitimate.

You can download the app for FREE on Google Play Store for Android. It is coming to iOS devices soon as well.
