- Red color denotes that the person has moved out for the longer duration, yellow color indicates that the person has wandered in limited movements, and green color indicates that the person is confined to house limits.
- Also with the help of this app, the teams will seek updates from quarantined people on their health status and details of persons in contact with them.
