Affected app Name: SwissCovid Package id: ch.admin.bag.dp3t Package version: 1.2.0.12000

Describe the bug

The SwissCovid app stopped to work and shows a message that a more recent Google Play version is needed. I could see the app crash once:

Please provide exact version of SwissCovid app you're seeing this issue with. Did the issue start to appear after upgrading microG or SwissCovid or just randomly with no visible cause?

Sorry for not adding the version number, I added it to the original text.

Did the issue start to appear after upgrading microG or SwissCovid or just randomly with no visible cause?

I'm pretty sure that the issue started to appear after upgrading the SwissCovid app, but I'm not 100% sure about it.

If you see a way to produce more logs or to give you more information just let me know. Thanks a lot.

For what it is worth I have version 1.1.0,105 with microg 0.2.13.20391 on Android 7 (Lineage 14.1) and it seems to work ok.

@tobru the version play store offers me for download is 1.1.2.11200 which does not have any issues. I manually downloaded 1.2.0.12000 and can reproduce it now. I'll have a look how to fix the issue.

Until then, I'd advise you to downgrade to 1.1.2.11200. Note that, as all relevant data (collected ids, sharing keys) is stored within microG, it should be safe to uninstall SwissCovid if required for downgrade.

@mar-v-in Thank you very much for looking into it, greatly appreciated!

SwissCovid 1.2.0 uses the "ExposureWindow" mode of Google's Exposure Notification API. This is not yet implemented in microG, see #1168. Becoming compatible again is going to be quite some work, but I'll put it rather high on my list.

SwissCovid 1.2.0 should work again as of 4c2ef04. Can you test with the build from https://microg.org/dl/core-en.apk?
