3. " LeaveHomeSafe" mobile app

The Government launched the “LeaveHomeSafe” mobile app to provide a convenient and voluntary digital tool for citizens to record their visit history to different venues. In order to further safeguard the health and safety of the University community, the University has participated in the programme and posted the corresponding QR codes at various venues within the campus and residential colleges in November 2020. All HSUHK members may download the mobile app and scan the QR code when entering the places as listed in Appendix I.
