Ratings and reviews

The app does exactly what it describes. Before arriving in Bahrain, I downloaded it, paid for my PCR test and everything went smoothly at the airport. After that, I booked my two appointments, and it was easy to find the test centers. I wish foreigners could also apply and pay for the vaccine, without having a CPR card. Anyway, overall it's a great app! 👍

I initially gave the app 5 stars, but recently, the photo uploading doesn't work. During the travel-mandated isolation in September, photo uploading was no issue at all. Replies to complaints are generic- uninstall, reinstall, check and grant all required permissions, all of which have been done, to no avail. Access to isolation and recovery certificate and its other features remain and are still very useful.

I liked the app, it is simple and does provide the necessary information. One thing that needs to be fixed is the notifications for the daily photo requests.. I am not getting the notification and missing to upload them most of the times. Also it would be great to see the date and expected time of self-isolation end test and instructions. Thanks for the good work!
