Contact COVID Alert Pennsylvania Support

When I opened the app initially, it was fine. It had a nice look and it was requesting information as I would expect any app to do. Then, my phone started getting incredibly hot, like too hot to handle comfortably and I have a silicone case! Okay, so I set the phone down and continued to use the app because, I figured, what could possibly go wrong when a phone gets 160 degrees, right? Before I finished registering, the app would keep crashing. I tried this several times until the app actually crashed other apps that I had open! I haven’t seen this happen many times before but I went ahead because, hey, maybe it’s just a bad first impression and I should give it at least 15 chances to not fail, right? Onward! Finally, I registered the application, poked around a bit, my phone still feeling like I imagine a tin roof would feel in Calcutta in the middle of July and exited. This started the long-awaited cooldown period for my phone. Take a breath! Later this morning, I come back to it and open the app only to find that I have to *re*register. The login that I had created wouldn’t work to get back in and I spent maybe a little less time registering the second time (it always takes longer the first time, doesn’t it?)... aaaaaand my phone’s burning my hands again. Alright, well... this is where I am with this. I’ll give you more feedback later!

This app seems like a really useful app and I feel very safe with it and hopefully it does a good job but there is just one striking issue with this app that I don’t get at all. When you go to choose your race on the app (which firstly I don’t get why that has to be a thing but okay) it has all the other races but it seemingly excludes the Hispanic race (which I am) from the entire list which is really weird to me how someone might forget that but alright. It’s just one obvious issue I see so far that really should not be an issue

If your going to ask the public to help out and participate in contact tracing then provide an app that will work with earlier versions of IOS software. Not everyone has a fancy new IPhone and especially in these times when people can’t pay rent and afford groceries, how can they afford to upgrade to a new phone... The people in charge (Levine and Wolf) should be aware of this and push to get it fixed!
