Health and Family Welfare Ministry is urging all Indian citizens to download the Aarogya Setu app. It will enable people to assess the risk for their catching Coronavirus infection.

The Aarogya Setu essentially predicts whether you are at risk or not. It is available in 11 Indian languages including English and Hindi.

The new app is available for both Android smartphones and iPhones. It can be downloaded on your smartphone via the Google Play Store or Apple’s App Store.

How Does The Aarogya Setu Coronavirus Tracker App Works

The new app shows your risk level in Green and Yellow color codes. It also suggests what to do.

For example, if you are marked in Green with a text saying ‘You are Safe’ then you just continue taking precautions like social distancing and staying at home.

However, if you are marked in Yellow with a text saying ‘You are at high risk‘, you need to contact a helpline number in your state along with other guidelines.

To find a close-by help center, tap on the Covid-19 Help centers button and scroll down to location once in your city.

Additionally, you can use the ‘Self Assessment Test’ feature on the Aarogya Setu app. Once you tap on this option, the app opens a chat window where it asks questions related to your current health and symptoms.
