How will the coronavirus app work? ...

It won't work. With only 17% of Singapore residents using a similar app, I would expect the Australian take up to be less than 10%. This is far short of the 80% needed for the App to be effective.

I suggest modifying the App to not store the data outside the phone, and releasing the source code. Also someone who is competent in IT, and credible, should be the public spokesperson for the project, not a government minister.
