Check In Qld app data!
The Check In Qld app permits individuals to register their presence at Queensland locations as required by the Queensland Government Chief Health Officer’s public health directions. The app is provided by the Department of Communities, Housing and Digital Economy and Queensland Health as part of the Queensland Government’s response to a declared public health emergency (COVID-19) under the Public Health Act 2005 (Qld).
