The GuideSafe™ Exposure Notification app is a useful tool that allows you to anonymously share your positive COVID-19 test result and determine if you have been in contact with someone else who also tested positive. It prioritizes maintaining your privacy while also looking out for the health of yourself, your family, and your community. Simply download the app and activate Bluetooth. If you receive a positive result, you have the option to notify others, and those who were in close proximity to you within the last two weeks will be alerted without revealing your identity or location.

Halting the transmission of COVID-19 is crucial for the reopening and maintenance of our communities, schools, and businesses. By increasing the number of individuals who utilize the GuideSafe™ Exposure Notification app, we improve our ability to inform those who may have been in contact with an infected person. While the Alabama Department of Public Health makes efforts to notify contacts of positive cases, it is impossible for them to reach everyone. The app provides a more comprehensive notification system that plays a significant role in combatting the spread of the virus.

The GuideSafe™ Exposure Notification app operates like a covert agent safeguarding you from COVID-19. It utilizes advanced Bluetooth technology to exchange unique codes with individuals in close proximity to you. In the event that someone tests positive for the virus, the app will discreetly notify all individuals who may have been exposed without revealing any personal information. Developed by the Alabama Department of Public Health in collaboration with the University of Alabama at Birmingham and MotionMobs, with support from Apple and Google, this innovative app ensures your privacy by only exchanging codes through Bluetooth without tracking your location.
