sloperating 40 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Early this month, there was breaking news that tracing apps were to become compulsory. At that time, the Thaivisa thread advised that both the Mor Chana and the Thai Chana apps would be acceptable alternatives. Since that time, it seems, only Mor Chana has been mentioned. Is downloading the Thai Chana app accepted by the authorities as meeting their legislated requirements, please? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
foreverlomsak 853 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 Information gleaned from people just released from Quarantine. Mor Chana is a must, Thai Chana is advised to use alongside. Truth is maybe somewhere else as this is Thailand. Link to post Share on other sites

Thujone 56 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 As far as I'm aware, there is no legislated requirement that everybody must have a tracking app on their phone. But I could be wrong. Often am... Link to post Share on other sites

Moonlover 7,208 Posted January 26 Share Posted January 26 It is only required in the so called 'high risk areas', at least that's according to the info below. I'm only using Thai Chana at the moment as I'm well away from these areas. https://thethaiger.com/coronavirus/ccsa-spokesman-apologises-for-jail-threat-over-non-use-of-mor-chana-app Link to post Share on other sites

AgMech Cowboy 1,338 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 On Crossy's recommendation, I installed Thai Chana. When the signs are prominent I remember to use it, but 60% of the time forget to 'sign out'. Yesterday, I stopped at KFC in Northwest Pathum Thani. They had a sign in sheet. Much easier for me. At my local Big C, no one slows down to 'find' the bar code, 'thingy'. Of course, when you leave a Government facility, (Even though it's an ASQ) they're going to tell you to use the Government App. Link to post Share on other sites

HampiK 794 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 actually when you scan a code with Mo Chana, in the background he use Thai Chana if you have installed, else it will use the website from Thai Chana. Mo Chana I also would be interested what the real advantage is, as it seems they not do anything as long you not travel outside some areas or inside some special areas, where it's mandatory to use the Mo Chana for cross the borders..... But it seems to be difficult to become valid information on which app is for what? Link to post Share on other sites
