Last October a friend of mine who lives on Islay had to travel to Liverpool for a family funeral. Prior to leaving Islay he downloaded the NHS Scotland Test and Trace app. He stopped at a service station on the M6 for a meal en route to Liverpool and tried to use his NHS Scotland Test and Trace app at the motorway service station. It did not work as it can only be used in Scotland. My friend had to write his contact details on a piece of paper and hand it to the manager of the restaurant. So much for modern technology. There is no substitute for the old fashioned method - pen and paper!
I hate to keep nipping at you but honestly nothing of that is remotely how the app works. Every hospitality venue was expected to keep a record of visitors, some used pen and paper, some had QR codes which should have been mandatory imo. This was completely separate to the apps, which can function anywhere in the world because they are just apps. The problem is, the Scottish app wouldn't talk to the English app because they were different technologies. I wouldn't try to find the result of Dundee's game on an app which only covered the bundesliga, would I.
