RIYADH — The Tawakkalna application has had more than 20 million users in the previous months since its launch.

The record turnout for the registration reflects the high level of reliability of the application as one of the most successful and effective digital solutions, launched by the ministry in cooperation with the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) on May 11 last year within the framework of supporting international health efforts to confront the COVID-19 pandemic.

It is noteworthy that Tawakkalna is the official app approved by the Ministry of Health to prevent the spread of coronavirus, and was developed by the National Information Center.

The application is available on Apple iOS and Android Google Play store. The app provides instant and live information about the number of coronavirus infections in the Kingdom, and helps in the early detection of possible infections once users show coronavirus symptoms.

In support of the state's efforts to counter the coronavirus pandemic, and its interest in ensuring that these efforts include all the citizens and residents, even those who violate the residency and labor regulations, the Tawakkalna Application Department allows us to register in the application expatriate workers who have some systemic problems, and that is on humanitarian grounds.

The reason is that the Tawakkalna app has proved its effectiveness as a preventive procedure to limit the spread of coronavirus, and the application continues at an accelerated pace to add government services to reach the desired goal, for it to be a comprehensive app that contains all the services that the citizen, resident and visitor need to carry out their daily work.
