Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting

Privacy-first Check-in and Alerting, designed for New Zealanders. Integration partners with Ministry of Health NZ.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

We are testing and refining auto-check-in at a few exclusive locations in Wellington initially... the @paperkiteltd office, Peoples Coffee Lukes Lane, and (coming soon) @HashigoZake

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@delphijunkie @PakehaAotearoan Agreed.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@Aethylred @paperkiteltd With a lot of difficulty? It's not something we designed for when we expected people to be scanning for 6 weeks tops! Not ideal - but hang onto the old phone for a couple of weeks?

@westynz @WgtnCC @WildBayNZ @WgtnWaterNZ @paperkiteltd Thanks for the vote of confidence Chris! 😍 Appreciate it!

What happens if you can't afford a modern smartphone and the official NZ COVID Tracer app doesn't work on your older phone?

For those running with an old phone at least Android 5 Rippl can be used for the same functionality. Read more here:

We hope everyone has a safe and stress-free lockdown.

If you do venture out to essential locations over the next few weeks, make sure your contact tracing app, either Rippl or NZ Covid Tracer, is up to date with the latest version. And please continue to keep scanning!

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

Integration with MOH continues to work smoothly. Alerts are sent to Rippl apps in parallel with those sent to NZ Covid Tracer. Keep scanning everyone.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

Now that Wellington is in Alert Level 2, it's a timely reminder to keep scanning and keep a digital diary of everywhere you've been. You can also enable Bluetooth on your Covid Tracer if you're prone to forget to manually scan in.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@dznz @aurynn @paperkiteltd Google pulled Rippl from the store (they are super cautious with Covid related apps). We are working with MOH to sort this out as a top priority.

@darrenb6773 Thanks Darren! We're happy you're happy. Let us know if you have more feedback

One very cool perk of switching over to the dark side. @Rippl_NZ

@VinLew Next Rippl release includes ability to easily turn on the flashlight ;-)

@Farfields_0x04 @andrewtychen What you describe is how Rippl works for businesses with beacons https://t.co/liyTdOqxPH

[Peter F-D @PeterFD]

That’s pretty cool! @Rippl_NZ @HashigoZake

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@VinLew Yes it did! Unfortunately the MOH QR code’s don’t support this feature.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@BroadleySpking @paperkiteltd @vizowl Not so good for knowing which pump or table you’re at - but have proven in testing to be ideal for venue check ins. Rest assured, we’ve banked the learning from when you were at PaperKite.

[Mark Cubey @markcubey]

Loving @Rippl_NZ

[Rob Holmes - PaperKite @robholmesnz]

We have @Rippl_NZ Auto Check-In working as designed ahead of @Beervananz this weekend! Sneak preview available at @HashigoZake.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

For now we're just testing this out with iPhone users at a select few locations including @Beervananz, People's Coffee (Luke's Ln) and @HashigoZake

Supported by our integration partner status with the @minhealthnz, we’re trialling Rippl Auto Check-In.

With Auto Check-In there's no need to scan a QR code! We check you in automatically at locations with a Rippl iBeacon.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@felix1234 Possible - but not on our roadmap - support for lock screen widgets isn't consistent across Android versions.

[Rippl: Privacy-first check-in and alerting @Rippl_NZ]

@felix1234 We do with the new auto-check-in (in beta)
