Description

The Robert Koch Institute (RKI), as the central institution of the Federal Government in the field of public health and as the national public health institute, publishes the CovPass app for the German Federal Government. The app allows the digital COVID certificates of the EU to be stored directly on the smartphone. Anyone who uses it can prove their vaccination protection or recovery quickly and securely. The app can also be used to store the EU's digital COVID certificates of other people (for example family members) on the smartphone. Users of the app decide when and to whom they show their information and data.

In 2021, the European Union introduced the digital COVID certificate as an EU-wide recognised proof of vaccination, recovery or negative testing for COVID-19. This regulation expired on 30 June 2023. On a transitional basis, the EU will continue to operate the technical systems to enable cross-border certificate testing until 31 December 2023. The transitional operation will end on this date. There is currently no international system with comparable functionalities and comparable scope.
In Germany, the possibility of issuing digital COVID certificates such as vaccination and recovery certificates will therefore be discontinued on 31 December 2023. The CovPass app and the CovPassCheck app will therefore also be discontinued. The CovPass app will be switched to wallet mode, in which the stored certificates will be retained.

HOW THE APP WORKS

Evidence of Corona vaccinations and recovery from Corona infection is the central function of the CovPass app. Whenever users prove their Corona status, only the information and data necessary for verification is displayed via QR code.

The QR code provides information about the validity of a vaccination or recovery certificate. For clear identification, the name and date of birth are also displayed during a check.

Corona vaccinations are certified with the EU digital COVID vaccination certificate upon request. The certificate is generated by medical staff after the vaccination. It contains a QR code that can be scanned with the CovPass app. Simply hold the camera of the smartphone over the QR code and all the information of the certificate is loaded onto the smartphone. The current QR code is then displayed on the app's home screen. This can be shown if required.

Recovery from a Corona infection is certified with the EU digital COVID recovery certificate. You can obtain the recovery certificate from your family doctor or local health office after surviving a Corona infection. It contains a QR code that can be scanned with the app. The certificate of recovery is then documented on the smartphone.

EU digital COVID certificates from other people (for example family members) can also be managed on the smartphone.

The data of the EU digital COVID certificate is stored locally on the smartphone. Only the users decide when and to whom they show the information and data.


HOW THE DATA REMAINS SECURE

Data protection is maintained throughout the entire period of use.
- No registration: No registration with an e-mail address is necessary.
- Local data storage: Your complete data is only stored on your smartphone.
- Data minimization: The QR code is displayed with the minimum amount of data agreed in the EU. After the QR code has been checked, only the status of the certificate, the name, and the date of birth are displayed.
- Cryptographic security: The QR code is protected with a strong signature and cannot be forged.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

2 ★Should at least include an English/French/Spanish language options in the user interface if its aimed at EU citizens.
1 ★Doesn't read the QR code!!!!! Tried with Samsung S5e and Huwaei P30 Pro. QR code is shown very dark in normally lit room, in daylight. No controls or adjustment for brightness. On the 2 printed certificates you get, there are 2 QR codes on each. It reads only one of these and every time complains it can't read the QR code. Basic functionality fails. Zero stars.
1 ★Please help! I have a new Xiaomi Poco phone and when I want to scan the QR code the camera is very dark and it doesn't see my QR code. But it can't be about my phone because usually the camera quality is very good
1 ★Why is it only in german available? I mean common guys... Please give the option to change language. Even if it's just english.
2 ★It seems that the App is only available in German, it should be in all 24 official languages.
1 ★Doesn't scan code. The code works in the corona warn app but not this one. Not a good product.
5 ★Took seconds to setup and scan, very easy and uncomplicated.
1 ★QR code scanner doesn't work at all, it gives immediately a mistake notification
1 ★The scan does not function on Android a71 phone: camera opens, QR code is pointed at, but nothing happens, only a circle with a close x symbol below. Please allow for manual input of the unique certificate identifier!
2 ★The app works, but whoever came up with the idea of only German language is stupid af. When people travel abroad, who will understand German?
1 ★Rubbish. Doesn't recognize its own QR codes. Come on Germany, it's time to get out of the nineties.
2 ★The app shows actual in German that you have to wait till you get a qr code. But people who have a android or apple account from outside Germany can not load it in the google play store or apple store. (If you have apple) But why this if there is also a warn app that has this part already in it ?? Not sure when we get the qr code. So at this moment not usefull!
