About PathCheck SafePlaces
PathCheck (formerly COVID Safe Paths) can privately save the places you visit and store them on your phone. Subscribe to Healthcare Authorities in your area for information about COVID-19 near you, where available.
Receive alerts from your local Healthcare Authority with information about potential exposure to COVID-19.
We are a global movement to develop free, open-source, privacy-by-design tools for residents, public health officials, and larger communities.
The PathCheck program has spun out of initial privacy-first research conducted by MIT and TripleBlind, into a newly created non-profit called PathCheck Foundation, established with the initial purpose of supporting global rollout of the PathCheck app and associated tools for contact tracers and healthcare authorities.
The goal of PathCheck is to help enable the reemergence and re-opening of economies and communities. Through global partnerships, we are prepared to support public health officials everywhere in the effort to slow the spread of COVID-19.

Excellent privacy 1st approach
Full disclosure: I am part of the team working on this app. I think that makes me more knowledgeable not biased. I saw how the sausage was made and I believe in it. This app is from a non-profit foundation trying to help the world find a path forward. The app is solid but only one piece of the puzzle; you need your local Public Healthcare Authority to deploy their services with the app so people know what to do if they test positive. I like that the location data is stored on my phone and no one can see it but me unless I choose to share it. I gave 4 instead of 5 stars because the Public Health Authority in my state has not adopted this solution so I cannot get full functionality.
