WhatsApp channel puts information at your fingertips containing the latest and detailed information on COVID-19 measures applying in NZ of interest for those businesses hoping to start up this week, and those needing immigration information on entry into NZ.

With the likelihood that New Zealand's alert level will drop to Level 3, this app should provide the information for those looking to start up their locked down businesses later in the week. It means the information is available at your without having to refer to media reports, or wade through a myriad of government websites.

The app is very easy to read, and built by a leading NZ software development consultancy, not the government.

This information should be accurate, and up to date in a changing situation with COVID-19 in New Zealand, but is only as good as those maintaining the content.

The app should also be of particular interest to America's Cup teams and fans coming to New Zealand.

This information will update on the changing status with Alert Levels, and for activities within the country and those intending to enter New Zealand - including any quarantine restrictions.
