Singapore is looking to widen access to its COVID-19 contact tracing wearable device, which soon can be delivered to the homes of new users. Current users of the TraceTogether token also will be able to replace non-working ones via more vending machines. 

A home delivery service would be introduced for new users of the TraceTogether wearable device, as part of “continuous effort to support” the nation’s public health requirements, said the Smart Nation and Digital Government Group (SNDGG) in a statement Wednesday. 

The government agency said more vending machines to issue replacement tokens also would be deployed progressively at more than 40 shopping malls, particularly those with high traffic, as well as all 108 community centres across the island, in the coming week.
