The UK wanted to save the data to, as it argued, it would be useful for scientists tracking the spread of Covid-19.

Dr. David Bonsall of the University of Oxford, the adviser to the NHS-App developers, told The Bbc , the tech giant had not support the choice of the British to the original model.

"Ultimately, the decision of Apple fell no support for the centralized System that had been in the development of the UK from March, and Six Weeks before it announced a private System under a decentralized model," He Said .

"And this must be taken into account in our considerations to The Situation that Britain now faces. "

The now abandoned NHS App was tested on The Isle of Wight, where it was downloaded More Than 50,000 times

But, it registered only about 4% of the iPhones that were in the vicinity.
