Singapore open-sourced their app, and Australia basically took the code and used it. Haven't really heard much about the app any more. Now it's all QR codes.

  Australia then proceeded to bury its use. No references to it any of the updates, for months, never a question until a recent test when they asked if we have the app installed. That they couldn't make it work on iPhone, to have it run in the background, was probably what sealed it. No such issues on Android.

  > and Australia basically took the code and used it. Australia basically paid $6million to a contracting company to take the Singapore code and badly reuse it... It was a pork barrelling rort from the start. The one good thing to come out of it was a learned a lot more about how to use Ghidra to reverse Android apks... (I had a great deal of fun, along with a group of other people, seeing just where the .au app differed from the .sg GitHub code...)
