What's happened to this? I've lost track of days, weeks, months and now this. Boris was proclaiming it's worth last time I saw him on TV. Is it working? Has it gone countrywide? What's going on?

And the Australian system isn't adding value, copied from the Telegraph source below for those without access.

"There are also issues around functionality. Testing data provided to the Australian Senate showed its effectiveness, particularly on iPhones, is patchy.
The data showed it only worked 25 to 50 per cent of the time during locked iPhone-to-iPhone testing on May 26. One month prior to that, the testing results were worse, working 25 per cent of the time, or less, for contact between locked iPhones. Testing also found the app worked poorly when running in the background."
