The Government of India has created the Arogya Setu App, which tells on the basis of symptoms whether you need to get corona virus tested or not.

Which is designed to keep user information confidential. We are happy that Apple and Google are developing such an app for contact tracing on the lines of Arogya Setu. '

 

Citing the Arogya Setu App, the World Bank on Sunday released a report that said it can help educate the population at large and track infection.
