Know nothing about the Qld app, a serious design flaw IMO. Perhaps it was deliberate? QR check in's are primarily used to generate testing lists anyway.

The NSW app:- you don't have to return to where you checked in, do this instead (from the NSW website).

"To check out:

open the Service NSW app
go to COVID Safe Check-in
tap the Recent tab
tap the Check out button."

I assume it links to the last check in you made. The longer you leave it the higher the risk of getting pinged.

However, if they checked in for you via the webform I guess you'll have to go back to them to checkout. Must admit I don't know how that works as they would either have to retrieve the original record or re-enter your details and tap a "check out" button.

My local Woolworths has now begun enforcing the sign in today.

.

The "recent" tab only brings up the "most recent". Previous entries go into the history tab. I have several of these marked "check out pending" but no apparent way to access them to do so.

In theory, I would have to check out of the centre before I go into the shop, then when I check out of the shop I'd have to go looking for a centre QR poster to check back into the centre again. Perhaps this is where the Qld system is better?

That is crazy! By the time you have fucked around you have doubled your exposure times and will probably get COVID.

Well, I didn't say it made sense. The idiocy this presents will be come clear if another outbreak occurs and people try to figure out whether it applies to them.

They are supposed to offer an alternative (webform) if people don't have a phone but then again they have the right to refuse entry.

When it becomes mandatory it would make sense for critical shops (food etc.) to be unable to refuse entry. I can see the Sunday Telegraph story now, "Pensioner couple die of starvation, unable to buy food because supermarkets refuse entry due to no phone".

Keep in mind there's an awful lot of phones out there there don't have scanning ability. Can't speak for Apple IOS but Android doesn't appear to have scanning under rev 9, which is on a lot of cheaper brands. There's also a lot of "dumb" phones still on 3G. One brand actively promoting to Seniors, simple, big buttons, no apps etc.

The irony of the QR code check-in is that you end up having to huddle closer together just to get at that QR code. Like in my local Coles, they have a 1m X 1m board with 2 QR codes stuck on it. Hard to stay at 1.5 m apart when there are 10 people trying to scan.

They have to either have an ipad to sign people in or an actual book for people to provide their name and number, woolworths shouldn't be turning people away, that's ridiculous...

Totally agree.

Electronic check in is mandatory for those venues that were already mandatory, now that all retail will be mandatory it's unclear if the same standard will be applied? When the PHO is released we might know.

Yeah, Phase 4 is a long way away.
There was nothing new in the 4 Phase plan. It was just stating the obvious really.

That means that all brothels and massage will have to have it and we'll all have to check in when we visit.

Big brother is now watching us 24/7.

If you have a smart phone they already can track you so don't worry about QR codes and microchips in vaccines.

I disabled all my apps permissions, literally everything and I was talking about sexy lingerie to a friend, next minute scrolling through face book and I am getting adds about lingerie and she was as well 🤨🧐

Lol this also depends on people getting vaccinated.

Phase 4: 'Back to normal' — almost
Mr Morrison described the final phase of the plan as being "back to normal", but there will be some remnants of the pandemic remaining.

For instance, in his description of potential changes, he said only vaccinated people may be exempted from quarantine, and also described testing of arrivals into the country.

But, as with every previous stage, movement to phase 4 would be incumbent upon Australians choosing to be vaccinated against COVID-19.

"If you get vaccinated, you get to change how we live as a country. You get to change how you live in Australia," Mr Morrison said.

That's the thing, never googled it at all or looked up. Was a verbal discussion for about 45 mins. I even disable mic in app permissions and it still popped up
