The French 'STOPCOVID APP' Got 1.9 Million Downloads In Just 3 Weeks

STOPCOVID App was released three weeks ago and the French government will be holding a press conference today to give an update on the app. In particular, this conference is a good opportunity to share some numbers. Over the past three weeks, 1.9 million people downloaded the app on the App Store or Play Store. Out of those 1.9 million people, 1,814,048 users opened the app and activated  STOPCOVID . The app can be disabled and you can also delete your personal data whenever you want. 23,953 people have deactivated the app over the past three weeks. And 460,000 people simply uninstalled the app. The government has little information about who’s using the app and where  because it doesn’t ask you to register with your name and address. So, the government will run surveys to learn more.  The government also says that people may feel like the coronavirus outbreak is over in France — there are still new cases every day so it’s far from over.
