Contact Tracing in the NT

The app enables individuals to check-in to venues and have this data stored securely by NT Health for 28 days so contact tracing can be quickly undertaken if required. It also allows you to check in friends and family, who might not have their own device, using your app.
Registration and use of the app is free of charge.
