About NZ COVID Tracer
If you test positive for COVID-19, you can also upload your anonymous Bluetooth Tracing keys so that other app users who have been close to you will be quickly notified.
Sign up for contact alerts in case you’ve checked into a location at the same time as someone with COVID-19, or exchanged anonymous Bluetooth keys with someone with COVID-19.
Use Bluetooth Tracing to enable the Exposure Notification System on your phone, so people around you can be anonymously notified if they are exposed to COVID-19.
Help contact tracing go faster by creating a private digital diary of the places you visit.
It helps you protect your friends, whānau and community by enabling faster contact tracing.
If you’re found to have COVID-19, you can share your digital diary with contact tracers.
NZ COVID Tracer is the Ministry of Health’s official contact tracing mobile app.
Any personal information you choose to share with contact tracers will be used only for public health purposes and never for enforcement.
Information about who you have encountered using Bluetooth Tracing will never leave your phone and is automatically deleted after 14 days.
This will help us identify whether any of your friends, whānau or community members may have also been exposed, so we can respond quickly and stop any further spread of the virus in New Zealand.
The Ministry of Health has worked closely with the Privacy Commissioner and independent security experts during the development of NZ COVID Tracer to ensure your privacy and data security are protected.
Register your contact information so contact tracers can get in touch if they need to.
This helps to keep your friends, whanau and community safe without compromising on your privacy.
Your digital diary will be stored securely on your phone and deleted automatically after 60 days.

Can’t open app
I can’t open NZCOVIDTracer on iOS 14.5. Crashes instantly. Tried reinstalling and restarting phone.

Make sure your “view my diary” is recording....
I used NZCOVIDTracer on my old iphone and it worked fine... Then, a couple of weeks ago I upgraded to a new iphone. After using NZCOVIDTracer on the new iphone for several weeks I decided (yesterday)to have a look at “view my diary”. It was EMPTY!
After much fiddling, logging out, and back in, restarting the iphone etc. I finally got NZCOVIDTracer to record QR code’s. (As follows)
I completely uninstalled NZCOVIDTracer from my phone (there is a warning on the MOH website about how you’re going to
“Loose your data” — but NZCOVIDTracer had NO HISTORY for me anyway...). Restarted the iPhone, reinstalled NZCOVIDTracer , and now it works...
My suspicion is that something went haywire in the upgrade from the old iPhone to the new iphone...
Wash your hands folks!

Doesn’t Work For iPad
New Zealand has recently entered Level 4, and wants to keep close tabs on people to avoid COVID transmission. Yes, that is commendable. Unfortunately, not everyone owns a smartphone. I use an iPad for all my digital needs, and since it isn’t a model with telephony ability, this NZ COVID App Tracer doesn’t work because the Bluetooth needs constant internet/mobile data informational exchange, and the iPad just doesn’t do that. So unfortunately, NZCOVIDTracer is useless on the iPad.

Can’t believe it took this long. But it’s finally here. Well done.

It ok but....
I have gone into retail places such as the Warehouse , Elliott Stables, a United bookstore and it has the right logo, but I get the”invalid QR...”. I have yet to be able to use the tracker. 3 stars for the idea. But...

Needs to add diary entry on open.
Currently when you use a QR code scanner (like ios native one) it only launches/opens NZCOVIDTracer . It doesn’t add the venues entry to your diary as it really should do to be a seamless experience.
So you still have to then stand there, navigate a few taps refocus and rescan the code. Really sub optimal.
If you really want people to scan then fix this behaviour/process so it’s a one stop one scan process.

Fix MIQ!
NZCOVIDTracer is mostly useless for New Zealanders overseas as our citizenship no longer allows us entry into the county.

Hardly anywhere to scan
App itself is 5 stars. Shame there isn’t a national standard QR code. I’ve only been able to use NZCOVIDTracer once out of about six places visited showing codes. Not really interested in having to use multiple apps and it seems the MoH one should be the standard...
