ENDCoV is an app that checks if you need COVID-19 testing, and it's now available for free.

An application called ENDCoV can now be downloaded for free from Google Play. It will also be launching on the App Store soon.

ENDCoV allows people to get a free assessment of their personal risk to the disease. Users need to sign up and answer a survey which is processed using a triage algorithm approved by DOH and consistent with the World Health Organization's latest surveillance definition of the disease.

The app can identify the health condition of the user and give recommendations like going through self-quarantine or getting tested for COVID-19.

ENDCoV also keeps the information about who the user recently came in contact with and a journal of places the user recently visited. The information is stored in the app privately for the purpose of contact tracing in case the user tests positive for coronavirus.

The app conforms to the Republic Act 11332 or the Mandatory Disclosure of Notifiable Diseases Act and RA 10173 or the Data Privacy Act, as well as policies issued by the Inter-Agency Task Force and the Office of the President.

More features such as heat maps to show high-risk areas to avoid, online consultations with doctors, and printable e-copy of triage results shall also be added to the app.
