Six weeks after the Start of the Italian Corona-Tracing App has confirmed the initial suspicion: "Immuni" is a Flop.

F. A. Z."Immuni" reports while traveling through the country continued, that the function of App in the Region in which it is located, may not be guaranteed, and that you may change the setting of the "home region". But what is the point of a national Tracing App, if it works smoothly on the boundaries of the 20 regions? In addition, several regions have developed from the Lombardy Sicily to Sardinia – own – Warning-Apps that compete effectively with the national App.
For comparison: In Germany, the Corona App that was well gone two weeks later than the Italian at the Start, it was downloaded within a period of four weeks to around 16 million – a quarter of all Smartphone users. In Austria, just under eight percent of mobile phone users, the national Tracing-downloaded App in Switzerland, there are approximately twelve percent. Also in the German App users complain about the apparently inevitable teething problems for a newly developed Software. But the acceptance of the Corona App seems not to be ensured, you are likely to even increase. In Italy, neither one nor the other is the case.
