Abstract: Coronavirus Disease 2019 or COVID-19 is a new disease that can cause respiratory problems and pneumonia.

The most common symptoms of COVID-19 are fever, feeling tired and a dry cough. Meanwhile, Android is

an operating system that is widely used to develop mobile applications in recently. Almost everyone has an

android smartphone, so that making android applications to help update sources of information and tackle

COVID-19 needs to be developed. This android application can help whether someone is infected with corona

or not by identifying the symptoms they are experiencing. Application testing uses suitability testing and

compatibility testing. Compatibility testing is done by installing applications on five different Android

devices. Based on the results of testing the functional suitability and compatibility aspects, the success

percentage was 100%.

1 INTRODUCTION

Coronavirus Disease 2019 or COVID-19 is a new

disease that can cause respiratory problems and

pneumonia. This disease is caused by infection with

Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2

(SARS-CoV-2). The most common symptoms of

COVID-19 are fever, feeling tired and a dry cough.

The main method of transmission of this disease is

thought to be through respiratory droplets and close

contact with sufferers.

Meanwhile, Android is an operating system that is

widely used to develop mobile applications in

recently. Android has a very large market covering

88% of the world and is expected to continue to grow.

Almost everyone has an android smartphone, so

making an android application to help prevent and

overcome COVID-19 needs to be developed.

This android application is planned to be able to

help whether someone is infected with corona or not

by identifying the symptoms they are experiencing.

This application can also be used to update sources of

information and advice about COVID-19 which

comes from the Official Website of COVID-19 in

Indonesia and the World Health Organization

(WHO).

2 EXPERIMENTAL METHOD

The application system will be designed to build

using the latest version of Android Studio using an

emulator for program execution. Android Studio is

the official Integrated Development Environment

(IDE) for Android application development. Creating

android applications with Android Studio, we can

create applications that can run on Smartwatch,

Tablet, Android TV and even Android Auto.

Android Studio is specially designed for Android

development. IDE It is available for use on Windows,

Mac OS X and Linux operating systems. Android

Studio was chosen because it has many features that

make it easier for program makers, especially basic

level programmers who want to learn more about

Android. Even though the process of using Android

Studio consumes quite a lot of RAM on PC devices,

Android Studio has many advantages such as: instant

run, smart code editor, fast and feature-rich emulator,

flexible versioning system, creating complete and

connected applications, and integrated with Firebase

and Cloud.

The research method applied in this study uses the

development of Luther method and ISO 25010

software testing method. According to Luther has the

following stages: Concept, Design, Obtaining

Content Material, Assembly, Testing, and

Distribution.

2.1 Concept

In this study, an android application will be developed

using an android studio which contains information

about covid-19. This information is in the form of

menu choices, including: Activate Bluetooth, Check

Health Independently, Chat Doctors Online,

Shopping for Medical Devices, Tips to Avoid

Covid19, Covid19 Update Info, Emergency

Numbers, and Share.

2.2 Design

In the design stage, a navigation structure will be

created which is the relationship between menus. The

design stage is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. Menu Navigation Structure

2.3 Obtaining Content Material

At this stage, the collection of materials in the form

of images, icons, materials, backgrounds and objects

needed in making Android applications is carried out.

The material is taken from features available on

Android Studio and is also sourced from websites that

provide free images without copyright.

2.4 Assembly

At this stage, the design that has been done is then

implemented into a program script in Android Studio.

The layout design in Android Studio uses the xml

language, while for the provision of activity actions

using the Java Programming Language. Then the

database used is firebase.

2.5 Testing

The test is carried out in accordance with ISO 25010

standards. The following is a data analysis technique

used in several tests carried out.

a) Functional Suitability Aspects

b) Performance Efficiency Aspects

c) Compatibility Aspects

3 RESULT AND DISCUSSION

Making this android application is planned to be able

to help update sources of information and advice

about COVID-19 from the official website of the

Indonesian COVID-19 and the World Health

Organization (WHO).

Bluetooth menu is used for tracing and tracking.

In this menu you can also find out the zone status of

the area where we live. Prixa menu functions to

perform checks independently. Self-examination

helps whether a person is infected with corona or not

by identifying the symptoms they are experiencing.

Chat menu functions to chat with bot doctors online.

Shopping menu functions to make purchases of

medical devices. The Tips menu contains advice on

preventing COVID-19. The Info menu contains data

updates on confirmed cases of COVID-19, currently

undergoing treatment, those who have recovered, and

cases that have died. The Call menu functions to

contact the COVID-19 hotline at 119. The Share

menu is useful for sharing with friends, family, or

other people.

Figure 5 explains the status of Pancoran Mas

District, Depok which is in the red zone. Red Zone,

meaning that there are still cases of COVID-19 in one

or more clusters with a high increase in cases.

Figure 6 describes the precautions that need to be

taken to avoid COVID19.

3.1 Functional Suitability Testing

Based on the results obtained from functional testing,

the following percentage results

success (%) = 11/11 x 100 % = 100%

3.2 Compatibility Testing

Compatibility testing is done by installing

applications on five Android devices. The following

are the results of the compatibility test presented in

table 2.
