    I trust an app made by the British government than anyone else. Hopefully they don’t subcontract it out. The British government has been known for making some things FOSS, like gov.uk

    I’d rather if they made it some form of open file format. So people can make third party apps for it.

      Of course they won’t make it in house, they’ll contract some company to do it as cheap as possible, and it will run like hot garbage and probably have a tone of bugs and security vulnerabilities.

      Remember the track and trace app they spent £10 Billion on?

        Ironically the Northern Ireland track and trace app was fine… A bit ridiculous how that app was devolved
