    It works for a 6S I believe. I've got IOS 12.4 and am up to date with downloads - you need 13.5 apparently.

    I like to stay a few years behind the new phone tech too. What I’m looking at now is that it’s saying I’m in a medium risk area, do they count the fact I live opposite the Heath hospital and the Covid ward is less than 1000 ft from my front door?

    You should be able to download iOS 13.7 which comes with a built-in track and trace app.

    iPhone 6 updates don’t go that high and will say your phone is up to date at 12.4.

    Hence the twitter outrage at our world beating system.

    They dont say how much mobile data it uses and cant find an answer. So installed it easy enough but uninstalled it when I couldnt get an answer to data usage.

    All the major phone networks have confirmed that the app runs without using up any of the users data allowance. Hopefully that will allow you to reinstall it. If we are ever going to beat the virus, this is an important part of the process, so I have installed it, as have all my family.

    I have, I wonder what chances you have of being within close enough proximity to someone with covid for it to alert you. I suppose slim especially considering they would also need the app.

    Just imagining a situation where if you were particularly unlucky your employer would start to think you were taking the piss.

    Being all techy for a moment, the app relies on the Bluetooth on your phone to detect the BT on someone else's phone and then decides if you're <2m from it. But BT has an location accuracy of only about 10m, so it will surely over predict the number of contacts you've had.

    I said in another thread that I don’t take my phone everywhere these days, I never take it to the gym so bit of a pointless exercise, but I do adhere to the hands, face and space theory.
