[URGENT] Radar COVID App Store version is not updated with DP3T SDK 1.2.1
pvieito opened this issue · 24 comments
🔑 The DP3T SDK version 1.2.1 solved a bug to make exposure detections work again on iOS 13.7 and iOS 14.
The App Store version of Radar COVID should be updated ASAP.
Does anybody read this issues? RadarCOVID v1.0.5 is 3 weeks old now and DP3T SDK v1.2.1 was released 11 days ago.
Since iOS 13.7 lets you opt-in to the COVID-19 Exposure Notifications system without the need to download an app (as documented on Apple Release Notes) we should assume a higher penetration rate than other iOS13 updates.
@jorgej-ramos Note that Exposure Notification Express (ie. app-less Exposure Notification) requires an integration between a Public Health Authority and Apple/Google. This is only available on some United States regions. Other regions, Spain included, continue to require an app for Exposure Notifications.
But in iOS 13.7 Apple has indeed added a boarding screen to make easier the download of Notification Exposure apps of each region so it is correct to assume a bigger penetration.
In any case the update should have been released before iOS 13.7 being public.

Of course, I'm aware. Perhaps my expression was not the best: I wanted to state that since the 13.7 update offers that possibility, RadarCOVID should have been updated the same day as the iOS 13.7 release. 11 days since the fix was published in the DP3T SDK should be more than enough to have already updated.
Thank you for your work!
@jorgej-ramos Exactly!
I'm actually just ranting. It seems incredible to me that in two days there is no answer to this important problem.
I refer to this issue in this twitter thread:

I’ve just asked Carme Artigas (the political leader of the project) if she has any insight on the update release date: https://twitter.com/pvieito/status/1304714609799069696?s=21
@pvieito i just did the same yesterday https://twitter.com/aalmenar/status/1304452362824749056
@aalmenar Great, thanks!
It’s a bit discouraging the silence of the project maintainers about this issue 3 days later 😔
The team should update the app as soon as possible because it's not working due to that issue.
Dev team: this is extremely URGENT, the app will not work on iOS 13.7 and iOS 14(it's release is planned for this month) till this is fixed.
14 days now since the release of DP3T SDK version 1.2.1, and consequently the solution to this problem. 14 days.
🤦
So here we are, iOS 14 is being released tomorrow and there is neither an update released nor any answer from the project maintainers: https://www.theverge.com/2020/9/15/21436979/apple-ios-ipados-14-release-date-september-16?utm_campaign=theverge&utm_content=chorus&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter
I can't believe this.
At least if they had started the integration with the European gateway (https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_20_1606) we could use the German or Italian app for exposure notifications but even that is not possible…
This is a very frustrating situation. I can't understand how this can happen now, when technology can lend a hand.
Fixed on Radar COVID 1.0.6! 🎉
Due to it's fixed now, you should close this issue
No, now it is worse: https://twitter.com/yoryobass/status/1306158399118364673?s=21
Radar COVID 1.0.6 is now connecting to https://radarcovidpre.covid19.gob.es instead of https://radarcovid.covid19.gob.es.
We are getting test TEKs instead of real TEKs, and now all iOS versions are affected… 😓
Can confirm that. My DNS server is detecting requests only for radarcovidpre.covid19.gob.es @alopezh
This is unbelievable.
I can also confirm, RadarCOVID is connecting against preproduction server
They can't. They need to make a new build, with the correct environment (production) and request again another update into the App Store.
The fast solution is to rollback the new update to prevent more users to update to an useless build.

Exactly. Urls are hardcoded on this file

Closing this issue, as it is kind of solved.
