I think you have unrealistic expectations of applications developed for public sector - I'm usually surprised if they do core of intended functionality correctly.

This isn't a project developed for the public sector really. Afaik it's a privately funded, for profit, product that has been licensed by several states in Germany by now.

Apart from that the official (indeed publicly funded) Corona-Warn-App did a much better job at this. (They actually did follow all the recent best practices in software-develoment + it's (mostly) run as a free software project, taking community contributions seriously, reacting to feedback and issues, etc.)

Sounds like a contractor developing something that gets paid with public money.

Sure. It's made by SAP.

I've had pleasant experiences with applications developed by the public sector. It's the consulting companies that are no good. Look at 18F.
