New feature of the ‘Ashyq’ application - from now on, the coronavirus status in the application will be flashing, and the timer will become brighter. The new protective feature will eliminate the possibility of screenshots and mobile screen records. In addition, soon the developers are planning to ‘speed up’ the work of the application by reducing the startup time. The changes will also affect other applications that allow scanning Ashyq QR codes.
“We have repeatedly witnessed that our citizens don’t use the Ashyq application properly, they show screenshots of statuses, try to trick the application as well as the system. In this case, we introduced two new innovations. We calculated that our users spend 1 minute and 22 seconds in the application. This is the average time between the Ashyq launch and the status display. We want to shorten this time,” said Vitaliy Pustovoitenko, Ashyq app developer.
