SINGAPORE — An updated version of the TraceTogether app will feature an individual’s Covid-19 vaccination and test statuses on the main check-in screen. This applies to those who are using version 2.11 and above of the app.

When TraceTogether app users show that they have cleared vaccination and test status checks, an otter against a green background will show up on a green SafeEntry check-in screen.

SINGAPORE — An updated version of the TraceTogether app will feature an individual’s Covid-19 vaccination and test statuses on the main check-in screen. This applies to those who are using version 2.11 and above of the app.

The Government Technology Agnecy (GovTech) announced this on Thursday (Nov 11) in an update on the TraceTogether website.

The change will mean that users do not have to return to the app’s home screen when showing or being asked for such information.

The updated version of the app will help with quicker entry into places with status checks, GovTech said in a post on Facebook.

When app users show that they have cleared vaccination and test status checks, an otter against a green background will show up on a green SafeEntry check-in screen.

For people who are not vaccinated and do not have a cleared test status, a white screen will appear instead. The white screen also applies to those who perform a group check-in.

The green and white passes only show when users do a QR code or Favourites check-in via the app, GovTech said.

As with previous versions of the app, check-ins done by tapping the app or phone against the SafeEntry Gateway scanner or SafeEntry Business app will not trigger the display of the passes.

“The green and white passes were designed to enable quick entry at places with vaccination or test status checks, and is available on the app versions 2.11 and above,” GovTech said.

“At places without vaccination or test status checks, users can enter regardless of their green or white pass.”

This latest change involves only check-in passes. There is no differentiation in check-out passes. CNA
