If you have an android phone, go under settings, then look for Google settings and see if it's there.
If you are using an IPhone, go under settings, privacy, then health, it's there but not yet functional. The app can notify you if you've been near someone that has the virus
Not my old ass phone. I still have my 15 year old little oval 3G with the slide out keyboard.
I just got a e-mail saying I needed to upgrade to a new phone, "or some services will not be updated correctly"

All I do is call and text. It has never ever logged onto the internet. Back when I got it, there was a fee for internet use, so I never hooked up.

They have pulled the Battery drain quick thing for about 2 weeks and now it is back to normal, and holds a charge for a week again. They did that to iPhone 6's to get people to upgrade.

Thanks - I've thought of that, but I think they can track us regardless of whether it's on or not.

Not sure but doesn’t the app only alert you when you’re around someone with COVID and meets the following criteria:

1. Knowingly has the virus
2. Has downloaded the app
3. Has logged in to the app and reported on the app that they have COVID.

Sounds like someone who is considerate enough to do that, they are most likely self quarantined themselves.

I really see NO need for this. It's all government overreach.

And to think, this sort of thing happening under a Republican President! Well, I never! We have executive actions to protect confederate statues. How about one of those to protect America's privacy, Mr. Trump?

Always remember, it isn't oppression if it's for safety purposes.

But at least with the IPhone 6 and 7 they were sued for it and agreed to pay $25 per person per device affected. I got a postcard about the settlement last week but I already knew about it.

The "covid camps" are coming next. Years in the future, folks will look at the pictures from our time showing box cars transporting the "lepers" through the gates of Auschwitz... I mean COVID CAMPS in order to take cleansing showers that will "cure" them.


Editor's note: "cure" them from a disease that has less than a one percent chance of killing them if they are below 70 years of age and that, in many cases, they don't even know they have--and even if they do, their symptoms are often that of a minor cold. A disease that the left treats as smallpox, ebola, or black death.

Mine is there. I wonder how long until they disabled the feature that allows you to turn it off.

Of course! It's for our own good....lol.

Australia and New Zealand are already talking about mandatory vaccines. Germany is enacting a law that starts next year whereby everyone who owns a dog MUST walk the dog twice a day for at least an hour each time. WTH??!!!

Every country is seeing how compliant people are going to be to ready us for the Great Reset.
