Add country to rapid test profile

Open Th3Ph4nt0m opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

Current Implementation

Currently, the rapid test profiles only support German addresses/addresses without a country.

Suggested Enhancement

A dropdown should be added in which the country can be specified in addition to the address.

Expected Benefits

It would be helpful for border penalties (e.g. Germany <-> Belgium) if another country could be selected.


Internal Tracking ID: EXPOSUREAPP-13339

This might be integrated with the EU digital certificates, see https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-wishlist/issues/424

This has not been implemented in version 2.4. Please update the labels.

The Rapid Test Profile does not include a country field, even in the upcoming 2.5 release so far. What would be the advantage of including the country of the user in the rapid test profile?

Possibly this wishlist item is not necessary due to the introduction of the EU Digital COVID Test Certificates?

The screenshot on https://www.coronawarn.app/assets/screenshots/2-4/en/android/CovidCertificateDetailsFragment.png doesn't show all the fields which can be scrolled to, but looking at https://github.com/corona-warn-app/cwa-app-android/blob/release/2.5.x/Corona-Warn-App/src/main/res/layout/fragment_test_certificate_details.xml the display contains the country producing the certificate (Germany). That is probably the country which is of interest. This could be the same as the country where the user has their home address, but not necessarily so.

For international use the EU Digital COVID Certificates are coming in to force tomorrow, July 1, 2021, so these will be the proof of negative test results which are important when crossing borders.

If this has not been approved I suggest to remove the approved label.

Maybe I misunderstand what the purpose of the Rapid Test Profile is. I was under the assumption that this creates a QR code that contains all personal data relevant to the test station. In that case it should include the country of residence. Assuming that the country of residence is the same as the country where the test is done is simply wrong - except perhaps for people that never ever leave their country of residence.

Please reconsider this request for enhancement.
