URA displays “LeaveHomeSafe” venue QR codes to support Government’s launch of COVID-19 exposure notification mobile app
In response to the launch of the Government’s “LeaveHomeSafe” COVID-19 exposure notification mobile app which is available for public download starting from today (16 November), the Urban Renewal Authority (URA) has arranged for display the “LeaveHomeSafe” venue QR codes at its 43 venues including offices, public facilities and properties held by the URA, to facilitate members of the public to record the date and time for checking into venues, receiving COVID-19 exposure notifications and health advice.
The URA venues showing the QR codes include its headquarters in Sheung Wan, all district offices, public facilitates, development projects, preservation and revitalisation projects, commercial properties that are owned and managed by the URA, as well as the seven shopping malls jointly operated with the joint venture (JV) developers (see Annex for the full list).
The URA will also discuss with the JV developers and commercial tenants of the shopping malls under JV operation to further invite some large-scale restaurants and retail stores to join the “LeaveHomeSafe” scheme, facilitating app users to keep detailed records of their journey.
The “'LeaveHomeSafe”' mobile app supports iOS, Android and Huawei mobile devices. Members of the public can download and install the app for their supporting platform at ''LeaveHomeSafe'' website (http://www.leavehomesafe.gov.hk). App users can check in the URA venues by scanning the venue QR code to log their arrival time and mark their departure by clicking on the “Leave” button. Relevant data will then be kept in the app inside the user's mobile phone. If a confirmed case is later discovered at a participating venue, the app will notify users who have visited the same venue as the COVID-19 confirmed case at around the same time together with health advice to enhance their vigilance.
