Faulty risk reporting after factory reset and restoring phone from backup #1379
Comments
We have no access on how many TEKs are available on the iPhone. At the moment we only can count the days how long the app was active. This state is in the backup and also restored. |
I see, makes sense. I feel like this could communicate an unjustified sense of trust though. On the long run Apple should give you access to the number of TEKs on the phone; until then: Since it is known that the log files are not backed up themselves, is there a way to exclude the information how many days the app was active from the backup? This would then reset the counter of days when restoring from backup... |
Hello @christqoh , Thank you for the report. We have created a ticket in the internal Jira for your issue (ticket ID: EXPOSUREAPP-3406). The developers will now investigate it and try to find a solution. Any updates or fixes will be communicated here on Github in this issue thread. Regards, Corona-Warn-App Open Source Team |
Any updates here? |
As T. Augsten already stated, there is not much the dev team can do about this. It is an Apple issue, how backups are handled. |
Okay thanks @dsarkar, so I propose to close this if there are no other reports of this Issue (or you asked Apple and they are processing the request). |
I ran into the same issue after restoring an iPhone 6s from an iCloud Backup, this is very confusing. Maybe this could be reopened as an Enhancement request, or should I open a new (Wishlist) issue for this? |
@Ein-Tim There are currently internal discussions on how to change the information of active days on the card: It might be dropped and/or replaced by another message (e.g. days since installation). There are several reasons to do so, just to mention some:
So altogether, with all these issues it is actually not very clear, what " n/14 active days" means exactly and there are (too) many ways how one could possibly define and interpret this number, leading amongst some users apparently more to confusion than adding additional useful information. So, we might expect to see some changes here anyway in one of the future releases. However, of course, feel free to create another wishlist item. |
Thank you so much for this update! I won't create another item, since this seems to be unnecessary if they are already in discussion internally. Thanks again! ❤️ |

Describe the bug
Had to reset my iPhone a few days back. Backed it up to Mac, did factory reset and reinstalled from Backup.
Exposure Logs were gone (as expected; https://www.coronawarn.app/en/faq/#backup) but Corona Warn still reports "Risikoermittlung dauerhaft aktiv" (different from https://www.coronawarn.app/en/faq/#migration_Apple)
Expected behaviour
Report risk with respect to the actual number of log files available.
Note that I only noticed this behavior today, the reset was three days ago (compare screenshots below). However, the app has been reporting "Risikoermittlung dauerhaft aktiv" throughout.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Back up phone with 14 days of exposure logs to Mac (macOS 10.15.7).
Factory-reset the phone from the Settings App ("Erase All Content and Settings").
Restore from Backup.
