A bug affecting Canada’s COVID Alert app has not been entirely fixed as federal officials first announced, leaving an unknown number of iPhone users still without exposure notifications.
Last week, CBC News reported a glitch prevented the app from functioning properly on some smartphones for much of November. The federal agency developing the app initially said an update released on Nov. 23 fixed the problem.
A Health Canada representative has now acknowledged the fix only solved the problem on Android devices, and “there are some instances of something similar happening” on iPhones.
