Or 2 million cheap burner phones on PAYG bought from Tesco and used as Covid tracers

Or contact Singapore and see about getting 60m or so of their dongles. Would cost, but provide more certainty/consistency vs the dozens of different 'smart' phones on the market. And it would probably be sensible to prioritise distributing the dongles to the highest risk people first.
