COVID Radar is one of the apps of the year. It is the application to communicate possible positives and to be attentive to possible contacts with them, therefore the government and health authorities recommend its installation.

It is a free application, without ads and which promises not to collect our data. If we haven’t installed it, Google Play will start showing us a review as soon as we enter, recommending its installation. We have done the test and even if we had already installed it and we voluntarily uninstalled it, this notice will reappear.

COVID Radar has been with us for a few months, ranking as one of the most downloaded apps in our country. However, Google is highlighting it even more so that users who haven’t installed it will consider doing so. We have verified in several mobiles that when opening the Play Store it shows us a warning recommending to install COVID Radar.

The notice is not too intrusive, because It only shows two options: to install it now or decline the invitation. With give now no the notice will no longer come out, so you won’t mind every time we open the App Store.

It is striking that, if we had already installed COVID Radar (something which is registered in Google Play) and we have uninstalled it, the notice will appear, despite the fact that we uninstalled the app on our own.
