With the COVID-19 pandemic, quarantines took place across the globe. In the aim of stopping or slowing the progression of the COVID-19 contamination, many countries have deployed a contact tracing system to notify persons that be in contact with a COVID-positive person. The contact tracing system is implemented in a mobile application and leverages technologies such as Bluetooth to trace interactions between persons. This paper discusses different smart-phone applications based on contact tracing system from privacy point of view.
