The Coronavirus Support App (UK) provides quick and easy access to the information you need to make informed decisions about your health and wellbeing during the coronavirus crisis - in one place, even when offline.
Created by a team of over 40 UK health professionals, topic experts and members of the public as well as nine partner organisations, the app contains practical and reassuring advice on coronavirus-related topics.
The Coronavirus App (UK) is your one-stop-guide to coping with the coronavirus pandemic, covering everything from general health advice to managing everyday practical problems and improving your mental health.
Open the app and find answers to your questions on:
- Assessing COVID-19 symptoms - discover how to stay well, recognise the symptoms of coronavirus and know what to do next
- Dealing with mental health concerns - find out about emotional problems and how to get support when you need it
- Managing in a crisis - know where and how to seek help if you're experiencing domestic abuse or are in a crisis situation
- Learning to cope - find useful tips on how to cope better with the lockdown
- Seeking help - easily access hundreds of trusted links to UK Government sites, NHS resources and UK charities
NHS areas can add local customised pages to the app to increase their reach and enable users to easily find links to local support - free of charge.
