Okay, get ready for a long post! Still, please go through it. You are home anyways.

The situation is getting scary, isn’t it?

I do believe in humanity. Humans cannot be bad at each other by hook or cook. Despite of all the blunders that few people are causing, I can see a lot of people helping each other in this corona virus crisis. I really feel good about it. I see the little effort from people providing food, money to the unprivileged people, and the organizations who are constantly trying to help the people just to stay safe and sound. It inspired me to do something. So, here I am.

I am a Software Engineer (Android) and I like to mess around with regular apps. I don’t have a lot of money to provide foods or medical supplies to a mass amount of people. At my position, I tried to make an app that might be helpful for the medical services or the individuals who are working hard to make simple changes in this crisis. Just my luck, I have got a few good souls to help me out to develop this application. Thank you Prottay bhai, Tanzeem bhai and Akib bhai for your kind help.

Nothing fancy here, The Android Application that I have developed saves the record of the persons who are infected with COVID-19. Since, we don’t have any authentic source for the count of infected person, this app can help with that. Also, we are actively looking for Medical Team/Organizations/Government who want to connect with us to get information about infected peoples, who registered in the app with phone number & marked himself/herself/family member as infected to give treatment or any advice or any kind of help.

[This app doesn’t have a play store link, because they said it violate their privacy & policy, I felt like crying when they showed this message]

With the outbreak of covid-19 aka corona virus disease, be secured and safe with this mobile app. The safety of your family and friends lies in your hand. Please mark yourself if you are infected and get necessary medical help. We hope you understand the current grim situation.

I named my app “R U Infected?”, and also I would like to say “Stay Home, Stay Safe.”

It is really shocking how many people are getting infected with corona virus for past few weeks. It would be convenient for any medical team, government officials or statisticians if they could get a possible number of the infected patients around the world. It would be helpful for them to provide medical help and necessary treatments.

To help them, R U Infected is a small step. In this crisis, it would be a problem to collect the information about the patients. If you take the step just by registering in this app and provide the authentic information about corona virus infected people around you, it will be a lot of help for the medical team and the dedicated individuals who are working day and night to save another patient.

Now let me tell you shortly about its features,

Easy Registration

Take 2 minutes to register in our app. Register with your Country, mobile number and preferred password. You will receive an OTP after you registered for this app.

Maximum 5 Infected People Marking

We understand the patients cannot always be in the situation to mark themselves. Please take the social responsibility and provide authentic information regarding the patient. You can submit information about five people for one registered account.

Image Verification

To avoid false mark-ups, we are providing the image verification for each covid-19 infected patient. Take a picture of the patient’s face and it will be verified automatically.

• No image of any other things will be accepted.

• Only one patient’s image (face) will be accepted.

Multiple Country Selection

You can check the current situation of the other affected countries through this app. Change the country and get the update of their current infected people.

Total Infected People Update

This app provides the information of total infected people of any region. The information is now available for the current day, past seven days and past one month.

You can check this app by yourself, you can also let people know about this app, especially who can make the best outcome from it.

Our sole purpose is to help people in this epidemic, and this is most certainly not for commercial or business purpose. Feel free to use it as it is a free-to-use app.

Here is another thing we hate to say but we have to, please oh god please, don’t share any wrong or fake information in this app. As we know, a lot of people out there who are….. hmm how to put this… not ethically stable, please do your “stuffs” but don’t include this app with that. We are trying to help, don’t involve your filthy sarcasm, or your numb skull in our little effort.

Okay, enough blabbering. Here is the link, please check it out, and if possible help us to fight this damn corona virus in our way. Thank you!
