2020-08-17: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Notification sample and history

Describe the bug, issue or concern

Currently it is unclear what a notification of the app will look like. There is also no clear button to view the notification history.

Expected behavior

Add in the "About the app" a section "Notification sample" combined with a screenshot of an actual notification.
Add at the "app home" a button to view the "Notification history". This will take you to an overview of all the (past) notifications.

Smartphone

• OS: Android

Additional context

Since it is not likely a lot of users will ever see the notification (hopefully). A screenshot of an actual notification might be useful for some users. At least I am curious what it will look like.
Since it might be easy to accidentally swipe a notification away an history containing all the past notifications might be useful. (Maybe even checkboxes "Requested test" and/or "Got tested".)

2020-08-17: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Missing the "blootstellingsmeldingen" tag in the play store

Describe the bug, issue or concern

In the google play store there is no mention of the tag "blootstellingsmeldingen".

To Reproduce

On a supported android phone set to the dutch language:

• Open settings
• Open "Google"
• Open "COVID-19 Exposure Notifications"
• Scroll to "More information"
• Tap "More information"

This will lead to the following page: https://support.google.com/android/answer/9888358?hl=nl (dutch)

Under the section "Wat u nodig heeft om aan de slag te gaan" we have the following text:

Als er een app beschikbaar is in uw regio, kunt u deze downloaden via de Play Store. Zoek naar 'blootstellingsmeldingen' of naar de naam van de app.

Smartphone

• OS: Android

Additional context

According to google you should search for "blootstellingsmeldingen" in the play store. However doing this does leads to the following page:

This might be because there is no mention of "blootstellingsmeldingen" on the play store listing of the app at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.rijksoverheid.en
It might be an idea to add this tag somehow. (Maybe even a screenshot of the "COVID-19 Exposure Notifications" open with the "CoronaMelder" logo.

Cannot turn on app

Nothing happens when I press the "Turn on app" button. I'm on MIUI 1.0.7 on a Xiaomi Redmi Note 8.

Any other info I can share?

App fails to warn

Describe the bug, issue or concern

Apparently I've been close to someone, but the app literally failed to warn me. The German "Corona Contact Tracing Germany" app warned me correctly though.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Be near someone infected for a prolonged time in the Netherlands
2. Wait for the German app to alert you
3. Notice the Dutch app act like everything is fine

Expected behavior

The Dutch app should warn me when there is an increased risk.

Screenshots

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Fairphone 3
• OS: LineageOS for microG 11
• Version: 2.5.4 build 142096-cc48c421

Additional context

I have never gotten any alert from the Dutch app in multiple years of usage. I contributed this to my careful behaviour. However, given I only installed the German app 7 days ago and already got a warning I now worry the Dutch app has been silently failing consistently...

CCTG noted that it was last updated today at 13:25 when it showed the risk, so I waited until the Dutch app showed "Last checked on March 7, 14:11" before reporting this issue (screenshot taken earlier). Given I was in the Netherlands on March 4th (the date CCTG warned me for), I would expect this to be waiting long enough.

[2020-08-17]: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Add option to temporarily disable the app

Issue:
It is not (clearly) obvious how to temporarily disable the app, without completely deleting it from your phone. Via phone settings you can deactivate "blootstellingsmeldingen".

Proposal:
It would be nice to use the "check" button in the app to mute the app for a while.

20200808: Inclusion criteria for F-Droid app store

Describe the bug, issue or concern

No notification after high risk exposure

Describe the bug, issue or concern

A few days ago I had contact with a person that later received a positive corona test result.
How ever I did not receive an Android notification.
When I opened the app I did get a High Risk exposure message.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open the app
2. Receive a High exposure message (but no notification before that)

Expected behavior

I would have expected to receive a notification about the High Risk exposure

2020-08-17: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Reproducible Builds

Describe the bug, issue or concern

As discussed previously in general at minvws/nl-covid19-notification-app-coordination#6, while it is great that the provenance chain has been audited (https://github.com/minvws/nl-covid19-notification-app-provenance), an even stronger verification that no-where in the (technical) process a step was compromised would be to use Reproducible Builds to allow all citizens to independently verify that the published binaries in the play store are actually consistent with the tagged source code.

To Reproduce

Personally I'm not an Android developer, so I hope to learn from others in this thread.

The steps to check reproducibility are generally:

• download the packages from the play store
• check out the tag from git
• build the code
• compare the result with the package downloaded from the play store.

I can build the code with ./gradlew bundleRelease (after generating a keystore and correctly setting KEYSTORE_KEY_ALIAS, KEYSTORE_KEY_PASSWORD and KEYSTORE_PASSWORD environment variables). This produces a app/build/outputs/bundle/prodRelease/covid-notificatie-v1.0.0-1-prod-release.aab , but I'm not sure yet if that's the right starting point and how to compare that to the packages from the play store.

I can understand if this is not the main focus of the VWS team right now, but I hope this issue might at least be a good place for contributors to share their knowledge and findings.

Expected behavior

It would be great if we could come up with the steps needed to independently validate the published packages correspond to the published source code. Of course it's only one link in the chain, but an important one!

2020-08-18: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Additional information appears to be needed to build a fully functional app

Describe the bug, issue or concern

This app is explained to be open source. To ensure there are no hidden gems, people should be able to compile it themselves.
For this a good amount of capability may be assumed, but it should be possible with the code and documentation.

Though I admit my capabilities may simply be lacking, I have tried to review the code of this Android App, and I cannot find the correct configuration for sending data to the actual server.

Currently build.gradle points to things like localhost, but I do not see the required configuration for actuall pointing to the real backend.

I hope this request makes sense, if there is additional information required to build and use the app please add this as well.

Couldn't check for 24 hours incorrectly changes to display success state on retry

Describe the bug, issue or concern

When the app hasn't been able to check for 24 hours, a notification is given. Clicking the notification brings you into the app with a warning that the app hasn't been able to check for infections for over 24 hours. Clicking the retry button instantly changes the app state back to a green checkmark with "The app is active", but after 24 hours the same error appears.

This incorrect switching to a "success" state gives a false sense of security and severely complicates troubleshooting this situation.

E.g.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Wait 24 hours for the app to notify you it hasn't been able to check for 24 hours (to this day, I don't know WHY it can't)
2. Open notification
3. Click on 'Retry'
4. See incorrect success state
5. Scroll down to note the last successful check is still very long ago ("Last checked on February 22, 19:15" in my case)

Expected behavior

Retrying should cause the same "couldn't check for 24 hours" error to pop up, as the check clearly hasn't succeeded in 24 hours.

Screenshots

Impossible, app blocks creating screenshots (why? what security issue is this supposed to solve? there is no private info on the main screen of the app...)

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Fairphone 3
• OS: Android 11
• Version: 2.4.3 build 142096-cc48c421

Additional context

This issue started appearing when I went to another network with a rather aggressive adblocker on it, so I assume my actual issue is some web URL being blocked. A list of URLs the app needs to access would be very helpful in letting me ensure my own safety, but the false reporting of the app (stating it is running successfully when it isn't) is a much more scary issue.

Coronamelder app doesn't work with microg

Describe the bug, issue or concern

Due to privacy concerns, I don't have Google Play Services installed on my Android 10 phone. For a long time, I've been running microg instead (see: https://github.com/microg/android_packages_apps_GmsCore if unknown).

When Coronamelder was just released, I was still running a microg version which hadn't implemented the Exposure Notifications API. As expected, I got the notification that I needed a Google Play Services update. About three weeks ago microg was updated to include the Exposure Notifications API and the message to update Play Services disappeared in Coronamelder.

However, upon clicking 'turn on' in the 'turn on Exposure Notifications screen' pop up, nothing seems to happen. The screen of some people and a bike that is supposed to appear, appears partly for less than a split second and then disappears again. "De app is niet actief" remains in the screen.

In short: Coronamelder cannot be turned on with microg instead of Play Services, even though latest version has the Exposure Notifaction API implemented.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Have microg instead of Play Services
2. Try to turn on Coronamelder
3. Don't get the outdated Play Service message
4. But still don't have a working Coronamelder

Expected behavior

Coronamelder should work with latest version of microg since Exposure Notifications API was implemented.

Cannot install - "Your play services is out of date" - UnifiedNlp (no GAPPS)

Describe the bug, issue or concern

After intalling I get the message "your Google Play Servies is out of date". There is an "update" button. Clicking it shows "UnifiedNlp (No GAPPS) in F-droid, without any possibility to update it.

A bigger question is: why does the app need access to a location service? Wasn't the whole point that it didn't use that stuff?

If one opens the app as a .zip file there is a okhttp3 folder. This folder contains but a file(and a notice) that contains public suffices.
These are .com/.nl/ names where one could register a domain name. This is not really something that one should expect inside a COVID19 app. It is quite suspicous to say the least. Can you remove this file, and the folder?

2020-08-17: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] - permissions not asked / set?

Describe the bug, issue or concern

After the news broke on tweakers.net about the availability of the app on Android I went ahead and installed it. During installation of the app and subsequent opening of the app I wasn't prompted for permissions Regarding Bluetooth usage or usage of the notification api for health providers.

I'm not sure if the app actually works because I don't see any notification of the app running in the background (other than the app telling me it is running). Also, when I check the permissions that the app has been given (in my settings) I see no permissions set other than it being able to send out "notifications", which is a regular permission.

To Reproduce

• Install the app from app store
• Open the app

Expected behavior

• The app asks for permissions Regarding the use of Bluetooth and the notification api

QR scanner

Describe the bug, issue or concern

Beste Rijksoverheid, Kunnen jullie in de app een functie toevoegen waarmee je bij horeca zaken bijvoorbeeld een QR code scant in plaats van al je gegevens te moeten achterlaten? Zo weet de app dat je op die locatie bent geweest en kan de app je contacten ipv de horeca. Mensen zullen dan meer gemotiveerd zijn de app te gebruiken en de horeca heeft hierdoor weer meer tijd voor hun corebusiness. Daarnaast hoeven mensen zo hun persoonlijke gegevens niet bij horeca gelegenheid achter te laten. Mensen die de app niet hebben kunnen zichzelf altijd alsnog inschrijven

Dear National Government, Can you add a function to the app that allows you to scan a QR code for catering establishments, for example, instead of having to leave all your details? This way the app knows that you have been at that location and the app can contact you instead of the catering industry. People will then be more motivated to use the app and the hospitality industry will have more time for their core business. In addition, people do not have to leave their personal details at a catering establishment. People who do not have the app can always register themselves

No notification after exposure match

Describe the bug, issue or concern

I had an old notification from 16 days ago that I deleted in the app. After a few hours I heard from someone that she had received a notification, so I checked in the app, but I didn't receive one. However, on further inspection I saw in the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications settings that there was a match in one of the exposure checks.

2020-08-28 [want-to-have]: guidance and documentation about how different phones notify the user about the usage of the corona phone service by the app.

Describe the bug, issue or concern

No clear notifications and no notification log.

To Reproduce

That's the issue :-(

My wife is running around with the application installed and enabled on the phone. We are not part of the test region.
Yet, she got notifications about dates she would have been in close contact with someone diagnosed with corona, on dates she was nowhere near anyone from the testing region.
She is not tech savvy, so the notifications are lost, and I can not see what exactly the notification said.

Expected behavior

Any notification should be logged and retrievable again, with debugging data if possible. There are 2 scenes for that:

• The not tech savvy person that needs someone that understands it a bit to explain what the phone is saying.
• The tech savvy person that needs to report bugs of possible false positives or anything else with logs and all.
  Also I would love to have a time with possible contact too.

No weekly notification received on my iphone

I do not get the weekly update notification from the corona melder app. On a similar iphone weekly messages are received (stating there was no contact with infected persons). Similar version of the app 1.0.5 and settings (notifications on)
My iphone is a company managed iphone (mobile iron installed)

Expected behavior

I would expect to receive the weekly messages that there was no contact with infected persons.

App crashes after device transfer

Describe the bug, issue or concern

I received a new Android phone yesterday and used the Google Device Transfer option to move my apps and data from my previous Google Pixel 4 XL to the Google Pixel 6 Pro.

Upon completion Google proceeded restoring all apps, including Corona melder.

After completion of device setup, Corona Melder won't start and crashes instantly. Clearing Data & Cache for the app fixes the issue and allows me to reinitialize the app.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Have 2 google Android devices at hand
2. Install Corona Melder on device 1 and configure it.
3. Hard reset device 2
4. When prompted to transfer data from an old phone let device 2 copy the data from device 1
5. Complete the installation process on device 2.
6. Make sure all updates are installed and all apps have finished installing.
7. Launch Corona Melder on device 2.
8. crash.

Workaround:

1. Open the app details of Corona Melder on device 2
2. Clear data
3. Launch the app again
4. Reconfigure the app.

Expected behavior

Ideally the app restores the configuration and automatically keeps working on the new device. If that's not possible, have the app detect the 'corrupt state', and pop up a notification to reinitialize.

At least don't crash on launch and let me reinitialize without having to manually clear the apps data.

[2020-10-22] [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] User can mark on map that user was possible at risc

Information
There may be circumstances where a user is or was at a location and would like to indicate on a map with a marker that user could maybe have been at risc (for example: supermarket too crowded).

With these markers people could be tentatively warned that they may have been at risc at xx date at xx time.

Collecting these markers can predict a possible risc spread.

This collecting or warning can be done in the background and when a certain level of user markers is reached, the notification of the app will run.

Is it possible to view the exposure notification configuration?

Describe the bug, issue or concern

I would like to understand how the exposure notification api is configured, especially with regards to the parameters for duration, I've observed in my friends and family as some online communties, that there is quite some confusion about this. For example, if you only sit next to an infected person for 14minutes, is that not reported as a high risk scenario?

What have I tried?

I love that it's an open source application, so I tried to figure out how it's working. But in the end the configuration for the ExposureNotification is not hard coded in the app (which I can understand) but is retrieved from the api server (v2/riskCalculationParameters/{id}).

https://github.com/minvws/nl-covid19-notification-app-android/blob/master/app/src/main/java/nl/rijksoverheid/en/ExposureNotificationsRepository.kt#L347

Is there are way to publish these configuration parameters? Combining that with the documentation gives me (and hopefully others) a better insight in how the application is functioning.

What would I like?

If you could expose these settings in the UI in a compact way, that would be really nice, just behind an advanced window or something. Otherwise, just a place to send a GET to and inspect the values.

2020-08-17: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Please support Huawei Mobile Services contact tracing API

Describe the bug, issue or concern

The CoronaMelder app does not work without Google Mobile Services (GMS) on Android. This is unfortunate, since Chinese device vendors make up roughly 12% of market share in the Netherlands (part of which doesn't come with GMS). Huawei provides it's own contact tracing API, HMS. Perhaps this can be incorporated into the CoronaMelder, to improve potential adoptation.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download CoronaMelder to Android Phone with GMS
2. Transfer app to a Huawei Android Phone without GMS with Phone Clone
3. Open app on Huawei phone
4. See error: CoronaMelder does not work without GMS

Expected behavior

Would expect app to open

Exposure notification reappeared after +- 90 days

Describe the bug, issue or concern

Today I received a notification on the android app for an exposure that was 90 days ago, and for which I already had a notification back then.

I checked the google exposures, and today at the time of the notification there were 0 exposures on the moment of the notifications (which did come together with the moment google collected its exposures).

You might want to set some maximum interval after which someone can receive such notification, to prevent this kind of behaviour even when there is some bug on the backend?

2020-08-31: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Unable to "Turn on" app

### The Issue
After download and installation of the app, one needs to go through the wizard, accept and give permissions for data usage (eg. acceptance of the privacy statement), then Turn on the app by hitting the corresponding blue button. However I am unable to do so and receive an error:

TITLE: Google Play Services is still being updated
The app can only keep track of possible coronavirus exposure when Google Play Services is up to date. Try again later.

### To Reproduce
Error can be reproduced by starting the app and walk through the first run wizard. When I quit the app, terminate the processes, start the app again, I have to go through the wizard again, hitting the same problem again. Tried to re-install the app, reboot the phone, but I can't get it to work.

### Diagnostics
I've seen other topics thus included the output of adb logcat. I hit the turn on button 3 times, they should be recorded.
logcat.txt

I also checked the Google Play Store. Its certified and running the latest version I could update/find: 20.9.10-all [0] [PR] 319853039. I did try to stop/start the Google Play Store/Services as well as a full clean restart of the phone, but this did not help.

### Screenshots

Smartphone:

• Device: Realme X50 Pro 5G
• OS: Android 10, security patch July 5, 2020
• Realme UI: V1.0

Additional context

Still not sure what it is. First I thought it might be because of the more exotic brand for an Android phone. Bluetooth was turned on during all tests. I also tried to give the app every permission I could give for the test, however, when going to the App Management, it says 'No permissions requested' so I can't do that.

Battery optimizations should not be an issue as the whole battery optimization proces/apps are disabled.

[2020-08-20]: [VWS/Covid19NotificationApp] Background sync issue

Describe the bug, issue or concern

When I haven't opened the app in more than a day and then open it, I get the error "The app couldn't connect to the internet for the past 24 hours. Check if your Wi-Fi or mobile data is turned on.", i.e. the sync_issue_notification_message. When the app cannot sync the codes, notifications will not work.

• Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and mobile data have been on all day, except at night.
• I do receive the "Exposure notifications inactive " notification from Google Play Services when I disable Bluetooth.
• Installation went smoothly and the app states "This app is active". Even when I got the sync_issue_notification_message, the app still stated "This app is active".

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Do not use app for >24 hours and open app.

Expected behavior

Background sync to allow for notifications.

Smartphone (please complete the following information):

• Device: Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite
• OS: Android 10
• MIUI version: 11.0.3

Additional context

I think the aggressive background app killing functionality of MIUI may kill the Coronamelder app in the background, but similar issues may arise on phones from certain other manufacturers. There are ways to allow the app to run in the background, but this requires following many steps, which many users will not (know how to) do.

I have now followed these steps and background sync should work for me now.

Confusing message about permissions in setup wizard

Describe the bug, issue or concern

During the initial setup wizard, I get the following screen:

E.g.

The wording "can only warn you when ..." suggests that the bullet points specify things that are required for CoronaMelder to work (warn me). However, the second point says "(not necessary)", suggesting that it is optional. So which is it? If it is not necessary, then why ask? If there are other advantages to granting battery optimization permission, then which are those?

I also looked through the help/FAQ section in the app and the only question that looks related is "How much power does the app use?", but that does not mention this permission at all.

Niet echt een concern, maar respect dat jullie de app zo snel in de lucht hebben kunnen zetten! Jammer genoeg duurt politiek altijd zo lang :)

Section 'What does a notification say?' does not actually explain what a notification says

Describe the bug, issue or concern

The app has a section supposedly explaining what a notification says, but it only describes what a notification will look like. It might be good to actually explain what information you will get in a notification.

To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open app
2. Go to "What does a notification say?"

Expected behavior

I expect a description of what a notification says, since that's the item I clicked on.

App does not report bluetooth is turned off

After install of app, 1.0.0 (68251-1e56b23) and accepting all questions, the app reports to be operational. I closed the app and left phone for a few hours . Then I turned off the Bluetooth of my phone. The app does not ask me to turn it on again, even for 24 hours of bluetooth turned off.

EncryptedSharedPreferences might throw exception on startup under heavy load

Describe the bug, issue or concern

Both our British and German colleagues ran into serious issues with files not decrypting on the app due to EncryptedSharedPreferences throwing an exception when the phone is under heavy load or is just booting up (e.g. after an android update). This led to database corruption bugs in the German app. And causes the app to fail to start on both.

ukhsa-collaboration/covid-19-app-android-ag-public#22

corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android#642 (comment)

E.g.

To Reproduce

Very hard to reproduce. (I haven't been able to reproduce it on this specific app yet but I did reproduce on the German counterpart) . But under high load the creation function on EncryptedSharedPreferences will throw a General security exception

Expected behavior

we should keep retrying with exponential backoff.
E.g. like https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/blob/7ff340f673103b92ce1e37fe383fec14a6afa4e1/Corona-Warn-App/src/main/java/de/rki/coronawarnapp/util/security/EncryptedPreferencesFactory.kt#L31

I only had a very superficial look at the code. So it might be that this error is already dealt with in the code without me realising.
